Conclusions:Conclusions:
• Albacore tuna cooked at 70 ºC Albacore tuna cooked at 70 ºC experiences experiences very little proteolytic degradation, very little proteolytic degradation, whereas albacore tuna cooked at 50, 55 whereas albacore tuna cooked at 50, 55 or 60 or 60 ººC have much greater rates of C have much greater rates of degradationdegradation
• The dorsal and tail portions of The dorsal and tail portions of albacore tuna experience the least albacore tuna experience the least amount of proteolytic degradation amount of proteolytic degradation overalloverall
Factors correlated with a high amount of Factors correlated with a high amount of proteolytic degradation include:proteolytic degradation include:
• Soft textureSoft texture
• Smaller Flake sizeSmaller Flake size
• GrittinessGrittiness
• Residual left in mouth after swallowingResidual left in mouth after swallowing
• Lower can yieldLower can yield
During the cooling process, albacore tuna meat During the cooling process, albacore tuna meat continues to degrade until the temperature continues to degrade until the temperature reaches about 30 reaches about 30 ºCºC
Mathematical simulations can be used to predict the Mathematical simulations can be used to predict the time/temperature exposure of different locations of time/temperature exposure of different locations of the tuna based on retort conditions.the tuna based on retort conditions.
This data can be combined with myosin degradation This data can be combined with myosin degradation rates to predict the total textural degradation that rates to predict the total textural degradation that occurs at any given location in the fish during the occurs at any given location in the fish during the precooking process.precooking process.
