The multi-gas sensor technology: a new tool for the quality evaluation of salmon (Salmo salar).

Author(s) : ETIENNE M., LUCON M., STEINMETZ V., PACHOT A., FLEURENCE J.

Summary

The use of multi-gas sensor technology (electronic nose) was described as a suitable technique to detect the volatile compounds from food samples. This technology was applied for the quality state evaluation of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) stored at 4 °C during 4 weeks. The aroma pattern was determined by the use of the « Fox 2000 » and the data collected were statistically treated by Discriminant Analysis and Neurone Network Analysis. This experience showed that the coupling of the electronic nose with a neurone network allowed, with an acceptable level error, the distinction between the classified samples into quality categories. The experimental establishment suggests that the electronic nose with an efficient system for the information treatment could be a suitable tool for the distinction of salmon quality classes, but was not yet adapted to the routine quality evaluation of fish samples.
