(3) Current applications of fish and shellfish enzymes in seafood production
1. The traditional applications of enzymes in the seafood industry have been limited to very
few products
① Fish protein hydrolysate
② Fish sauce
③ Cured herring
2. Additional applications of fish or shellfish enzymes in the seafood industry
① Exogenous enzymes to accelerate the process
② Production of other products (PUFA-enriched fish oils)
③ Selective removal of skin
④ Fish-scale removal
⑤ Riddling process in cured roe production
1) Specialty products
1. Product whose manufacture is made possible, directly or indirectly by the use of enzymes
2. These products are differentiated from “conventional products” such as fresh, frozen, or
canned fisheries in which use of enzyme is not necessary for production
