| Abstract: | "This study investigates the effect of sodium alginate-gallic acid (ALG-GAL) coating on mackerel's flavor compounds and quality properties during cold storage at 4 degrees C for 12 days. To this end, freshness quality indicators, including biogenic amines (BAs), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ATP-related compounds, K value, total viable counts (TVC), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), and sensory assessment, were measured. During storage, eight BAs, i.e., histamine (HIS), tyramine (TYR), putrescine (PUT), cadaverine (CAD), 2-phenylethylamine (2-PHE), agimation, spermine (SPM), and spermidine (SPD) were identified in control and treated samples. The biogenic amine index (BAI) for control samples was 56.25 at the time of sensory rejection (day 6). BAI for samples coated with ALG-GAL did not exceed 20 mg/100 g at the time of sensory rejection (day 12). The fillets treated with the ALG alone or incorporated with GAL possessed a different trend in the retardation of VOCs, including aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, and hydrocarbons. Seven key flavors VOCs, including 3-methylbutanal, phenylacetaldehyde, E-2-hexanal, 1-hexanol, 1-octen-3-ol, 2,3 pentanedione, and hydroxyl-2-butanone, were identified in control and coated samples. Samples coated with ALG and GAL were of significantly higher quality (p < 0.05) throughout storage, which could result in lower Inosine (HxR) concentrations and K values. The results of TVC showed that use ALG-GAL had lower bacterial counts compared to control (p < 0.05). The ALG-GAL-coated samples retarded the increase in the contents of TBA during storage. In addition, significant differences in sensory scores between ALG and ALG-GAL were observed (p < 0.05). In this study, aldehydes and hypoxanthine (Hx) were the main compounds in the formation of off-flavor. These results revealed that ALG coating combined with GAL improved the quality of refrigerated mackerel fillets by decreasing off-flavor compounds and TVC population" |
