Tainting of Fishery Resources

This study evaluates real or potential concerns for the tainting of fisheries resources, including shellfish, resulting from oil spills or hydrocarbon development activities. It first defines tainting and identifies the hydrocarbon compounds responsible for tainting. It then reviews known case histories of tainting and procedures currently in place (in Canada and elsewhere) to identify and monitor instances of tainting. The major sensory and chemical analysis methods used to detect the presence of off-flavours and levels of hydrocarbons in tissues, together with a review of research in this field, are presented. Proposed methods and procedures which could be adopted for dealing with a potential tainting situation associated with offshore oil and gas activities are also discussed. Finally, recommendations are made for future studies of tainting.
