A medieval view of fish processing, by Peter Brueghel the Elder (1556). There is evidence humans have been processing fish since the early Holocene. For example, fishbones (c. 8140–7550 BP, uncalibrated) at Atlit-Yam, a submerged Neolithic site off Israel, have been analysed. What emerged was a picture of "a pile of fish gutted and processed ...
A fish fillet processor processes fish into a fillet. Fish processing starts from the time the fish is caught. Popular species processed include cod, hake, haddock, tuna, herring, mackerel, salmon and pollock . Commercial fish processing is a global practice. Processing varies regionally in productivity, type of operation, yield and regulation.
Canned fish. Canned or tinned fish are food fish which have been processed, sealed in an airtight container such as a sealed tin can, and subjected to heat. Canning is a method of preserving food, and provides a typical shelf life ranging from one to five years. They are usually opened via a can opener, but sometimes have a pull-tab so that ...
Fish preservation is the method of increasing the shelf life of fish and other fish products by applying the principles of different branches of science in order to keep the fish, after it has landed, in a condition wholesome and fit for human consumption. [ 1][ 2] Ancient methods of preserving fish included drying, salting, pickling and smoking.
Fish factory. Small scale fish factory next to a pier at the NW end of the main road on the Kincasslagh Peninsula. A fish factory, also known as a fish plant or fish processing facility, is a facility in which fish processing is performed. They are commonly located near bodies of water but can be located inland and on fishing vessels.
Offshore aquaculture. Offshore aquaculture uses fish cages similar to these inshore cages, except they are submerged and moved offshore into deeper water. Offshore aquaculture, also known as open water aquaculture or open ocean aquaculture, is an emerging approach to mariculture ( seawater aquafarming) where fish farms are positioned in deeper ...
A metaphase cell positive for the bcr/abl rearrangement (associated with chronic myelogenous leukemia) using FISH. The chromosomes can be seen in blue. The chromosome that is labeled with green and red spots (upper left) is the one where the rearrangement is present. Fluorescence in situ hybridization ( FISH) is a molecular cytogenetic ...
Of North American freshwater species, an estimated 48.5% of mussels, 22.8% of gastropods, 32.7% of crayfishes, 25.9% of amphibians, and 21.2% of fish are either endangered or threatened. [24] Extinction rates of many species may increase severely into the next century because of invasive species, loss of keystone species, and species which are ...
