Understanding blood flukes infecting Southern Bluefin Tuna

Cardicola forsteri is the dominant blood fluke species detected in farmed Southern Bluefin Tuna in 2018. Our results have shown that traditional methods (heart flush and gill microscopy) were limited to detecting adults or eggs. Comparisons of currently used diagnostic methods showed that...

Summary

Traditionally, in common with other agriculture-based industries, the Australian Fishing Industry has been production, rather than consumer, oriented. In recent times, however, diminishing markets for meat, fruit and vegetables have served as catalysts for change in these industries, changes embracing the conversion of primary produce into value-added, further processed forms. Value-adding, as well as providing employment opportunities, is a source of added revenue for the processor, and fills the increasing consumer wants of greater variety and convenience.
 
The Australian Fishing Industry, by contrast, has barely embraced the concept of further-processing, particularly for domestic consumption, despite the market that exists in Australia for processed fish products.
 
It was against this background that the Food Technology Unit, RMIT sought Federal funding via the Fishing Industry Research Trust Account (FIRTA) to undertake research and development (R&D) into two Victorian products: scallops and mussels.

The moisture content of scallops

The mass of scallops sampled from processing plants in Melbourne during the period November 1983 - December 1994 was found to vary according to fishing ground. Tasmanian scallops were larger (mean 11.6g) than those from Port Phillip Bay (9.9g) and Lakes' Entrance (9.4g). Scallops caught in Port...
