Validating the Origin of Capture of fish {MMO1167} {MMO1191} {MMO1192} (MMO1193} {MMO1194}

The Marine Management Organisation’s (MMO) sought an assessment of methods for confirming where fish sold ashore were originally caught. Four technique classes were identified as promising by the MMO including stable isotopes, lipids, trace elements and genetics.

Details

As part of the Marine Management Organisation’s (MMO) ongoing work towards enhancing traceability and identifying provenance, the MMO sought an assessment of methods for confirming where fish sold ashore were originally caught to potentially support and verify other systems for managing compliance and enforcement. Four technique classes previously identified as promising by the MMO were chosen genetics, lipids, trace elements and stable isotopes.
