Annual variations in the mineral element content of five fish species from the ...
Pinto, Filipa R.; Duarte, Ana M.; Silva, Frederica; Barroso, Sónia; Mendes, Susana; Pinto, Edgar; Almeida, Agostinho; Sequeira, Vera; Vieira, Ana RitaThe most consumed fish species in Portugal do not correspond to the most caught fish species on the Portuguese coast. From the point of view of ocean sustainability and economics, it is important to study unexploited or underexploited fish species that have the potential to be introduced into the food market. This potential can be reflected by their nutritional value, where mineral elements are often overlooked...
Seasonal study of the nutritional composition of unexploited and low commercial...
Duarte, Ana M.; Silva, Frederica; Mendes, Susana; Pinto, Filipa R.; Barroso, Sonia; Silva, Elisabete; Neves, Ana; Sequeira, VeraTarget species diversification is essential for fisheries sustainability and fish market revitalization. Fish discards are a widely recognized problem resulting from fisheries worldwide, and are of major concern for all sector players, from administrations, to fishermen, and scientists. However, non-target species are seldom studied, and information on nutritional profiles and seasonal changes in nutritional pr...

Adding value to bycatch fish species captured in the Portuguese coast—developme...
Silva, Frederica; Duarte, Ana M.; Mendes, Susana; Borges, Patrícia; Magalhães, Elisabete; Pinto, Filipa R.; Barroso, Sonia; Neves, Ana; Sequeira, VeraWe live in a world of limited biological resources and ecosystems, which are essential to feed people. Consequently, diversifying target species and considering full exploitation are essential for fishery sustainability. The present study focuses on the valorization of three low commercial value fish species (blue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus; black seabream, Spondyliosoma cantharus; and piper gurnard, T...
Phytopharmacological strategies in the management of type 2 diabetes Mellitus
Duarte, Ana M.; Guarino, Maria P.; Barroso, Sonia; Gil, Maria MType 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic disease which corresponds to 90% of the worldwide cases of diabetes, mainly due to epigenetic factors such as unhealthy lifestyles. First line therapeutic approaches are based on lifestyle changes, most of the time complemented with medication mostly associated with several side e ects and high costs. As a result, the scientific community is constantly working for th...
CATA vs. FCP for a rapid descriptive analysis in sensory characterization of fish
Silva, Frederica; Duarte, Ana M.; Mendes, Susana; Pinto, Filipa R.; Barroso, Sonia; Ganhão, Rui; Gil, Maria M.Storing non-marketable fish aboard fishing vessels takes up valuable storage space and, consequently, it is usually discarded. Therefore, the strategy to minimize the amount of discarded fish and boost the fishing economy should entail measures to turn unexploited species into marketable fish. The use of sensory descriptive analysis is usually the first step in the characterization of foods and assess their bas...
Quality assessment of chilled and frozen fish: mini review
Duarte, Ana M.; Silva, Frederica; Pinto, Filipa R.; Barroso, Sonia; Gil, Maria MFish is a very perishable food and therefore several storage strategies need to be employed to increase its shelf-life, guaranteeing its safety and quality from catch to consumption. Despite the advances in modern fish storage technologies, chilling and freezing are still the most common preservation methods used onboard. The present review aims to summarize strategies to increase the shelf-life of fresh (chill...
Seasonal sensory evaluation of low commercial value or unexploited fish species...
Silva, Frederica; Duarte, Ana M.; Mendes, Susana; Magalhães, Elisabete; Pinto, Filipa R.; Barroso, Sonia; Neves, Ana; Sequeira, Vera; Vieira, Ana RitaOverfishing is increasing over time, and according to FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization), about one third of the world’s fish stocks are now overfished. Thus, diversifying the target species is essential for fisheries sustainability contributing to improve resource-effcient processes. Non-target species can be valuable resources for the development of new food products. However, those species are scarcely ...
