Aquaculture Testing

  • Taste and Odor (Off Flavor)

    Off flavor in fish can occur when there is a build up of geosmin/2-MIB in the water. These compounds, which are caused by algal blooms, are responsible for the earthy, musty odor and taste in your fish. As the fish swim around in water with geosmin/2-MIB, the contaminants are getting stored into the fatty tissue in turn causing the fish to have an off-flavor.

    We have been performing this specific analysis for municipalities and aquacultures all across the United States. We have partnered with Universities and research organizations to better understand the problem. We have multiple instruments and technicians setup to ensure you get results extremely quick.
