Practical student projects on the development of the fisheries sector will be discussed when Master's students in the Faculty of Food Science at the University of Iceland give their MS lectures on Tuesday 28 May 2019 in Matís, Vínlandsleið 12, in meeting room 312. Everyone is welcome!
Kl. 15:00 moves Snæfríður Arnardóttir his thesis:
„Ringworms in fresh fillets of Atlantic cod. Possible ways to remove or kill roundworms in fresh fish or reduce their mobility. " (Nematodes in fresh Atlantic cod fillets. Possible methods to remove or kill nematodes from fresh fish or decrease their mobility.)
Objectives of the project was exploring ways to remove or kill ringworm in fresh fish without affecting the quality of the fillet. It was investigated using electric shocks at different voltages, sound waves at different frequencies and ozone. The mobility of roundworms was also examined in aerated packaging (MAP) at 4 ° C on the one hand and -0.5 ° C on the other.
Supervisors: Professor Sigurjón Arason, Professor María Guðjónsdóttir and PhD student Hildur Inga Sveinsdóttir.

"Effects of different raw material handling and cold storage on the chemical properties of cod heads." (Effect of different processing method and frozen storage on chemical properties of the various parts of the cod head.)
Objectives of the project was primarily to examine the possibility of utilizing the various parts of the cod head, in addition to examining the effects of different processing methods on board fishing vessels and cold storage on the chemical properties of different parts of the cod head, ie. gills, cheeks, gels, eyes and brain.
