Abstract
The aim of the IQAS project is to improve the quality of fresh
fish (white fish and flat fish) landed by the Community vessels
significantly and to increase the proportion of the fish caught
used for food purposes, as well as to improve the on-board working
conditions. This will be achieved by specifying and developing
safe, efficient, mechanized on-board handling systems enabling the
catch to be sorted, gutted, bled, characterized for length and
weight, prepared quickly and correctly for rapid chilling and to
be stored in appropriate, labelled containers at 0°C until sold. A
monitoring, measuring, container labelling and data storage system
has been developed to specify the quality of the fish to the buyer
at the point of sale by reference to the actual time/temperature
history of the fish prior to the sale and to the measurements of
length and weight
