Abstract
The objectives of the present study were to determine the effects of feeding a fishmeal-based diet on color attributes and lipid oxidation in sunshine bass (Morone chrysops × Morone saxatilis) fillets during retail display. A balanced diet containing 30 percent fishmeal (FM) or a diet containing poultry byproduct meal as a complete replacement of fishmeal (PB) was fed to sunshine bass for fifteen months. Harvested fish were filleted, overwrapped with polyvinyl chloride film and stored at 2 °C (REF) or over ice (ICE), under an illuminated retail display. Samples (n = 6) were analyzed after 0, 3, 6, or 9 d storage for color attributes (CIE L*, a*, b*, hue angle and chroma), thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), and pH. TBARS and pH increased (P < 0.05) during storage, indicating progress in lipid oxidation and protein changes. FM fillets demonstrated lower (P < 0.05) a* (redness) value and greater (P < 0.05) hue angle than PB fillets. Since consumer acceptance of sunshine bass is dependant upon its white flesh, fishmeal supplementation could be used as a dietary strategy to improve fish marketability.
