Description
Summary:The employment of an ethanolic extract of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) as a novel preservation medium and as a source of bioactive compounds is tested for chilled fish storage. For this purpose, specimens from an under‐valued pelagic species (Atlantic chub mackerel, Scomber colias) are stored in ice including quinoa at two concentrations: 80% aq. (v/v) ethanol extracts (0.05 and 0.20 g lyophilized quinoa extract L−1 icing solution; Q‐1 and Q‐2 batches, respectively) and compared to a control icing condition (Q‐0 batch). The evolution of fish quality is assessed during a 13‐day chilled storage period. The presence of the most concentrated quinoa extract (i.e., Q‐2 batch) in the icing medium implied lower (p
