Super cooling could be preferred method of preservation for fresh fish in the future.

Super cooling involves cooling the fish to a temperature of about -1.5 degrees Celsius, which is when ice crystals start forming in the fish muscle tissue. This can improve storage by up to four days compared with normal cooling, and at the same time retaining the taste and quality of ordinary fresh fish. The technology can also contribute to better yield, more efficient transport an less negative environmental consequences.
The mini-seminar, which will be held during the fisheries exhibition Nor-Fishing 2010 in Trondheim, and is organised by the Food Programme of the Research Council of Norway and the Fishery and Aquaculture Research Fund. Researches from SINTEF will do the presentations. The presentations will focus on different aspects of super cooling. SINTEF will also present such issues as energy consumption in the fish processing industry and analyses of quality changes. The seminar will be held in the Nor-Fishing exhibition halls, meeting room 1C, on the 18th of August from 12:30 until 15:00 hrs. Participation is free but there is a limited number of participants. Persons interested in participating should register with Ms. Turid Hiller, Research Council of Norway no later than 10th of August For more information, contact Turid Hiller, tlf. +47 40634254, e-mail: thi@rcn.no
