Summary

Identification of processed fish lacking morphological characteristics is of growing importance in the times of increasing global trade and illegal fishery. Protein electrophoresis techniques, like isoelectric focusing (IEF) of water-soluble proteins, are fast and inexpensive tools for identification of raw fishery products. Protein profiles of raw fish or fillet of the same species were found to be remarkably constant. However, it cannot be excluded that protein patterns of fish of the same species from distant stocks may show some variation.
