Description:
The objective of the present study is to determine the variability of chemical composition and sensorial attributes of
sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) farmed in the North of Tunisia, in relation to season and farming location. Sensory
analysis showed significant sensory differences between batches in relation to the season and the production site.
Thus, fish quality is best appreciated for specimen caught during the winter season than those caught in summer with
a clear variation related to the farming site. The relationship between biochemical criteria and sensory appreciation
was treated by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) which has 73% of all the variables, 44% has been described by
PC1 component and 29% component PC2 showing the effect of farming location on sensory and biochemical
qualities of the products. The differences appear to be related to lipid flesh content as the least appreciated samples
correspond to fish produced during the summer with significantly higher fat levels.
