Testing Flavor Quality of Preharvest Channel Catfish

Document format: pdf

Publisher: Southern Regional Aquaculture Center

Creation date: November 1991

Farm-raised channel catfish is known for its mild flavor and lack of the fishy odor that is typical for marine and wild freshwater fish. Unfortunately, catfish may acquire flavors perceived as unacceptable by the consumer. Marketing of off-flavor fish is likely to jeopardize consumer satisfaction and future market demand. Therefore, adequate quality control to guarantee that off-flavor fish are not marketed is essential to the catfish industry.
