Seafood Watch® defines sustainable seafood as originating from sources, whether wild-caught or farmed, which can maintain or increase production in the long- term without jeopardizing the structure or function of affected ecosystems. Seafood Watch® makes its science-based recommendations available to the public in the form of regional pocket guides that can be downloaded from the Internet (seafoodwatch.org) or obtained from the Seafood Watch® program by emailing [email protected]. The program’s goals are to raise awareness of important ocean conservation issues and empower seafood consumers and businesses to make choices for healthy oceans. Each sustainability recommendation on the regional pocket guides is supported by a Seafood Report. Each report synthesizes and analyzes the most current ecological, fisheries and ecosystem science on a species, then evaluates this information against the program’s conservation ethic to arrive at a recommendation of “Best Choices”, “Good Alternatives” or “Avoid.” The detailed evaluation methodology is available upon request. In producing the Seafood Reports, Seafood Watch® seeks out research published in academic, peer-reviewed journals whenever possible. Other sources of information include government technical publications, fishery management plans and supporting documents, and other scientific reviews of ecological sustainability.

  • A Quick Guide to Cooking with Ausab Abalone in Brine
    A Quick Guide to Cooking With Ausab Abalone in Brine Ausab Canned Abalone is a versatile product that requires minimal effort to create the perfect meal at home. The abalone is completely cleaned and cooked, and ready to eat. With a unique umami flavor, it can be used in many different ways. The meat is smooth and tender, and the perfect balance between sweet and salty. Ensure the canned abalone is stored in a well ventilated, cool place out of direct sunlight. How to Prepare the Abalone The abalone is canned, ready to eat with mouth attached. To preserve it’s tender texture, it is best to use the abalone when just heated through. This can be achieved by using the abalone at the end of cooking, or slowly heated in the can. To safely heat the abalone in it’s can follow these steps: 1. Leave the can unopened and remove all labels. 2. Place the can into a pot of water so that it is fully submerged and is horizontal. 3. Bring the water to a gentle simmer and leave submerged for 15 – 20 minutes. 4. Remove the pot from the heat and wait for the water to cool before carefully lifting the can out of the water with large tongs. 5. Open the can once it is cool enough to handle. 6.

  • OHA Issues Advisory for Softshell Clams Along Oregon Coast Removing Skin from Clam’S Siphon Dramatically Reduces Arsenic Levels, Public Health Officials Say
    EDITORS: Oregon Public Health Division staff members will be available for interviews from 4 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. TODAY (July 13) in Room 1-A (first floor), Portland State Office Building, 800 NE Oregon St. July 13, 2015 Media contact: Jonathan Modie, 971-246-9139, [email protected] OHA issues advisory for softshell clams along Oregon Coast Removing skin from clam’s siphon dramatically reduces arsenic levels, public health officials say The Oregon Health Authority is issuing a health advisory for the length of the Oregon Coast for softshell clams because they contain high levels of naturally occurring arsenic. The advisory is most important for people who dig their own clams and target the specific species Mya arenaria, since these clams are not commercially available in markets or restaurants. The advisory, issued today by the OHA Public Health Division, recommends removing the skin from the siphon, or “neck,” of softshell clams before eating them. Softshell clams are found primarily in estuary and intertidal regions of the Oregon coast. This advisory stems from tests the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality performed on a variety of shellfish species collected along the Oregon coast as part of its Water Quality Toxics Monitoring Program. DEQ’s tests found that when analyzed whole without the shell, softshell clams contained unusually high levels of inorganic arsenic. Most of the arsenic was concentrated in the skin covering the clam’s siphon. Researchers found that by removing the skin covering the siphon before eating, the arsenic can be greatly reduced, to levels that are not harmful.

  • FDA: "Glowing" Seafood?
    FDA: "Glowing" Seafood? http://web.archive.org/web/20080225162926/http://vm.cfsan.fda.gov/~ea... U.S. Food and Drug Administration Seafood Products Research Center July 1998 "GLOWING" SEAFOOD? by Patricia N. Sado* Introduction Seafood that produces a bright, blue-green light in the dark could be a meal from outer space or haute cuisine in a science fiction novel. The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has received many consumer complaints about various seafood products "glowing" in the dark. Some of these consumers called their local health departments, poison control centers, and their U.S. Senator because they thought they had been poisoned by radiation. These consumers said they had trouble convincing people that their seafood was emitting light. One consumer took his imitation crabmeat to a local television station. Unfortunately his seafood had dried out and did not glow for the television reporters. Several consumers said that it took them many weeks before they found phone numbers for various government agencies to make inquiries. Several consumers thought their "glowing" seafood was due to phosphorescing phytoplankton, or even fluorescence. The consumers' seafood products "glowing" in the dark were not due to radiation or to fluorescence, which requires an ultraviolet light to trigger the reaction. These seafood products exhibited luminescence due to the presence of certain bacteria that are capable of emitting light. Luminescence by bacteria is due to a chemical reaction catalyzed by luciferase, a protein similar to that found in fireflies. The reaction involves oxidation of a reduced flavin mononucleotide and a long chain aliphatic aldehyde by molecular oxygen to produce oxidized flavin plus fatty acid and light (5, 12).

  • Mercury in Fish – Background to the Mercury in Fish Advisory Statement
    Mercury in fish – Background to the mercury in fish advisory statement (March 2004) Food regulators regularly assess the potential risks associated with the presence of contaminants in the food supply to ensure that, for all sections of the population, these risks are minimised. Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has recently reviewed its risk assessment for mercury in food. The results from this assessment indicate that certain groups, particularly pregnant women, women intending to become pregnant and young children (up to and including 6 years), should limit their consumption of some types of fish in order to control their exposure to mercury. The risk assessment conducted by FSANZ that was published in 2004 used the most recent data and knowledge available at the time. FSANZ intends toreview the advisory statement in the future and will take any new data and scientific evidence into consideration at that time. BENEFITS OF FISH Even though certain types of fish can accumulate higher levels of mercury than others, it is widely recognised that there are considerable nutritional benefits to be derived from the regular consumption of fish. Fish is an excellent source of high biological value protein, is low in saturated fat and contains polyunsaturated fatty acids such as essential omega-3 polyunsaturates. It is also a good source of some vitamins, particularly vitamin D where a 150 g serve of fish will supply around 3 micrograms of vitamin D – about three times the amount of vitamin D in a 10 g serve of margarine. Fish forms a significant component of the Australian diet with approximately 25% of the population consuming fish at least once a week (1995 Australian National Nutrition Survey; McLennan & Podger 1999).
