Influence of alpha-tocopherol acetate in high lipid diets on quality of refrigerated atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fillets.

Summary

The role of increased levels of Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) in a commercial salmon diet, high in lipids (290 g/kg) was investigated. Diets containing different proportions of alpha-tocopherol were fed to 18 fish per treatment during 50 and 78 days (mean weight, 630 g). Fish were slaughtered. Fillet samples were analysed fresh or after storage at 4 deg C for 12 days or -20 deg C for 30 days. Results are given, but further investigations are necessary to establish the actual dietary and fillet level of alpha-tocopherol, to give best protection against oxydation.
