Riguardo questo articolo

Print on Demand. This book takes a thorough look into the salmon industry of the early 1900s, going into great detail about the physical and chemical properties of salmon, as well as changes in decomposition and the canning process. The author was a specialist in sea life, particularly salmon, working as a chemist for the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries, so he was able to present detailed scientific information about salmon, and explain phenomena such as spoilage in detail. The book goes into great detail not only about the objective canning process but also about subjective experiences in the food, discussing the meanings and causes of observations such as odor, color, and texture, which had been previously undocumented. The book's insights into the nature of salmon and the decomposition process remain foundational in the field, and it is still used as a resource for understanding the science behind the fishing industry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Riassunto

Excerpt from A Biochemical Study of Pacific Coast Salmon With Particular Reference to the Formation of Indol and Skatol During Decomposition

The value and importance of the salmon canning industry will be realized from a study of the following brief table summarizing the number of cases of salmon packed since the inception of salmon canning on the Pacific Coast in 1864. This table gives the total cases packed for the whole Pacific Coast, including British Columbia, and, for the sake of brevity, is given in ten-year periods with the exception of the first period which covers only eight years.

Table 1. Volume of canned salmon since the inception of the industry.
