and products of such animals
Consumption of fish and fishery products
•
•
•
•
•
Seaside countries
World: Mean is about 16 kg per capita
Norway, Spain: 48 kg per capita

Hungary: 3.5 kg per capita
Consumption of fish and fishery products
• World consumption: 130 million tons
• 70% natural water (seawater)
• 30% aquaculture (“Aquaculture is the farming of aquatic
organisms, including fish, molluscs, crustaceans and
aquatic plants.”)
General food safety aspects of
fishery products
• Healthy but!:
• High water content: 78-82%
• pH: ≥ 6.0 → perishable
• Can be contaminated by microbes,
parasites harmful to human consumers
• Can contain residues and other chemicals
Hygiene requirements of
production and distribution
– vessels (Reg. 853/2004)
• Vessels:
– Must be constructed so as not to cause contamination
of products with bilge-water, sewage, smoke, fuel,
oil/grease or other substances
– Surfaces must be suitable corrosion-resistant, smooth
and easy to clean
• Vessels are to preserve fresh fishery products for
more than 24 hours
– Must be equipped with hold tanks/containers for
storage the products at appropriate temperature
– Tanks must incorporate devices for achieving a
uniform temperature throughout the tanks (6 hours
after loading ≤3°C; 16 hours after loading ≤0°C)
Hygiene requirements of production
and distribution – vessels (Reg.
853/2004)
• Freezer vessels:
– (bleeding, heading, gutting, removal of fins
 freezing and wrapping/packaging)
• Equipment to lower and maintain ≤-18°C

core temperature
Drinking-water or clean seawater used
Hygiene requirements of production
and distribution – vessels (Reg.
853/2004)
• Factory vessels:
– (bleeding, heading, gutting,
removal of fins, filleting, slicing,
skinning/shucking, mincing or
processing  chilling, freezing
and wrapping/packaging)
• Must have
– A receiving area for taking fish
on board which allow the
successive catch to be separated

soon as possible after capture
– Must be washed immediately and
thoroughly (potable water, clean
sea water)

Preservation methods - spoilage
• Spoilage is usually caused by Pseudomonas
•
•
species, Shewanella putrefaciens and
(Acinetobacter and Moraxella –chilled!)
Spoilage  proteins of fish  histamine and
other biogenic amines  scombrotoxicosis
(“scombroid fish poisoning”; sardine, mackerel,
tuna): vomiting, diarrhoea, rash, urticaria,
nausea (allergic reactions)
Prevention: fast chilling to ≤4°C
Preservation methods - spoilage
• Spoiled fish:
• malodorous with acid, bitter, ammoniac character,
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
covered by sticky, yellowish brown mucus
The scales can be elevated and removed
the skin is wrinkled, discoloured and also can easily be
removed
The eyes are fade, opalescence, hollowed
The gill cover is elevated, red-brown, the gills are dry,
greyish or sticky
The musculature is loose, soft and reddish brown
(discoloured), friable
the abdomen is deformed, the anus is opened, often
prolapsed
The viscera are loose, light coloured, the mucosa is
destructed
Preservation methods
• Salting
• Smoking
• Marinading/marinating
• Canning (canned fish in oil)
Salting
• Most commonly dry salting (herring, sardine)
• After capture, gutting → salting (20kg
NaCl/100kg fish) →
• Storage in staunch/hermetically closed barrel
(0…+5°C)
• Ripening/aging (25-35 day)
• Spoilage caused
– In barrel: by halophil bacteria, anaerobes,
yeast
– Lightly salted products: lactic acid bacteria,
psychrotophic bacteria
– Dry, salted products: moulds
• CAVIAR: is the processed, salted roe of
certain fish, mostly the sturgeon (black) and
the salmon (red).

Official control on production,
distribution and fishery products
• According to Regulation (EC) No 854/2004
laying down specific rules for the
organisation of official control on products
of animal origin intended for human
consumption
Control on production and
distribution
• Production and distribution must be
controlled by official veterinarian regularly
from time to time
• Vessels, establishments on land, fish
auctions, wholesale markets, conditions of
storage and transport, in particular
according to the followings:
Control on production and
distribution
• a, On vessels the cleanliness of establishments, their
•
•
facilities and equipments, and staff hygiene (at the port)
b, regular check on hygiene conditions of landing and
first sale
c, in case of establishment on land:
– Whether the conditions of approval are still fulfilled
– Whether the fishery products are handled correctly
– For compliance of hygiene and temperature requirements (GHP,
technological and staff hygiene)
• d, check of the conditions of storage and transport
Official control on fishery products
• A. Organoleptic examinations
• B. Freshness indicators
• C. Histamine
• D. Residues and contaminants
• E. Microbiological checks
• F. Parasites
• G. Poisonous fishery products
Official control on fishery products A. Organoleptic examinations
• Random organoleptic checks must be carried out
•
•
by the food business operator at all stages of
production, processing and distribution.
Aim of these checks is to verify compliance with
the criteria.
Competent official veterinarian must check
during landing/loading or before distribution
every batch to verify whether satisfactory or not
for human consumption (organoleptic
examination with sampling if necessary)
Official control on fishery products B. Freshness indicators
• When the organoleptic examination reveals any doubt as
•
•
to the freshness of the fishery products, samples may be
taken and subjected to laboratory tests to determine the
levels of total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) and
trimethylamine nitrogen (TMA-N).
The criteria laid down in Reg. (EC) No 2074/2005: 2535mgN/100g.
When the organoleptic examination gives cause to
suspect the presence of other conditions which may
affect human health, appropriate samples are to be
taken for verification purposes.
Official control on fishery products C. Histamine
• Random testing for histamine is to be carried out by the
food-business operator to verify compliance with the
permitted levels laid down in Reg. (EC) No 2073/2005.

Ciguatera or other toxins dangerous to human
health.
DECISIONS AFTER CONTROLS
Fishery products are to be declared unfit for
human consumption if:
• 1. organoleptic, chemical, physical or microbiological
•
•
•
checks or checks for parasites have shown that they are
not in compliance with the relevant Community
legislation;
2. they contain in their edible parts contaminants or
residues in excess of the limits or at levels where the
calculated dietary intake would exceed the acceptable
daily or weekly intake for humans;
3. they derive from poisonous fish, fishery products
containing biotoxins
4. the competent authority considers that they may
constitute a risk to public or animal health or are for any
other reason not suitable for human consumption.
Inspection of live, fresh and frozen fish;
declaration of fitness for human consumption
