Pilot-Scale Antioxidant Dipping of Herring (Clupea harengus) Co-products to Allow Their Upgrading to a High-Quality Mince for Food Production.

ABSTRACT: To enable production of high-quality mince from herring backbones, a scalable antioxidant strategy is needed due to the high susceptibility of herring muscle to lipid oxidation. We here measured the stabilizing effect of lab-/pilot-scale predipping of herring backbones (30-500 kg) in antioxidant solutions prior to production of mechanically separated mince (MSM). The antioxidants were (i) Duralox MANC, a mixture of rosemary extract, ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol, and citric acid, and (ii) rosemary extract with or without isoascorbic acid. Delivery of the key rosemary-derived antioxidant components carnosol and carnosic acid was monitored during the dipping process and ice/frozen storage. Predipping in 2% Duralox MANC gave MSM with 26.7-31.7 mg/kg carnosol + carnosic acid and extended the oxi
