As a culturally iconic Chinese delicacy, pufferfish lacks systematic research on thermal processing optimization and pre-cooked meal development, limiting its industrial standardization and quality preservation. This study aimed to bridge this gap by evaluating steaming effects onTakifugu flavidusquality. This study systematically evaluated its physicochemical properties and flavor profiles under different steaming durations by determining the water loss rate, mass loss rate, water distribution status, textural properties, color, and free amino acid content using an electronic nose, electronic tongue, and headspace gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS). The results indicated that the core temperature of the fish meat reached 70 °C after 9 min of steaming. With higher steaming time, its mass loss rate and water loss rate generally increased, though the water loss rate temporarily decreased at 10 min. The mass loss rate stabilized after 12.5 min. The hardness and chewiness of the fish meat increased significantly when steamed for 12.5 min or longer. After 5 min of steaming, the brightness value and yellow-blue value of the fish meat significantly increased, whereas the red-green value significantly decreased. The total free amino acid content showed a fluctuating upward trend and electronic tongue analysis revealed an increase in umami and richness after steaming. Electronic nose and HS-GC-IMS analyses demonstrated that the variety and content of volatile flavor compounds significantly increased with prolonged steaming. Sensory evaluation showed that the 10 min steaming group exhibited better texture and color, while the 15 min steaming group had the best odor. Therefore, the optimal steaming time forT. flaviduswas determined to be 10–15 min. For home cooking, a 15 min steaming process achieves the peak abundance of flavor compounds and the highest sensory evaluation score. For the industrial production of pre-cooked meals, a 10 min steaming process can meet the doneness requirements while maintaining suitable textural properties and color stability. The findings of this study not only advance the scientific understanding of thermal processing effects on pufferfish quality attributes, but also establish a critical technological foundation for developing standardized industrial processing protocols and high-quality pre-prepared pufferfish products.

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is one of the most toxic substances of non-protein in nature. In present study, a rapid and sensitive method based on in vivo solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was developed to detect the endogenous TTX in pufferfish ( Fugu ). Fiber evaluation experiments demonstrated that, compared with the commercial PDMS and PA fibers, the home-made electrospun PS@PDA-GA fibers exhibited much better extraction performance towards to TTX in water (120 times and 20 times, respectively), under the optimized conditions. Then, the home-made SPME fibers were employed to extract TTX in spiked homogeneous fish muscle samples, and a LC-MS-MS was used for the analysis. The reproducibilities (RSDs of inter and intra fiber were 12.1%, and 7.9% respectively), linear range (10–1000 ng g −1 , R 2 =0.9963) and sensitivity (the LOD was 2.3 ng g −1 ) of the method were found to be excellent and satisfactory for further in vivo experiments. Especially the LOD of the established method is lower than the National Standard Method of China (GB/T 23217-2008, LOD 50 ng g −1 ). Subsequently, the method was successfully applied to detect the TTX in the dorsal muscle of living pufferfish, and the accuracy was verified with traditional liquid extraction (LE) method. In general, this is the first study to detect TTX in pufferfish by in vivo sampling method, which provided a promising alternative method for the studies of TTX, and also advanced the implementation of SPME for more in vivo studies.

Active packaging is an innovative and effective way to extend the shelf life of food, but few studies have focused on the effect of its active ingredients on food flavor . This study aimed to develop slow-release polylactic acid/polyhydroxyalkanoates (PLA/PHA) active packaging containing oregano essential oil (OEO) and investigate the effect of active composite packaging on the flavor and quality of pufferfish fillets. The plasticizing effect of OEO increased the elongation at break (EAB) of the films from 23.36% to 65.80%. The adsorption of montmorillonite (MMT) reduces the loss of OEO during processing. The amount of active substance (carvacrol) released from PLA/PHA/OEO/MMT film to pufferfish was 9.70 mg/kg. The pufferfish fillets packed in PLA/PHA/OEO/MMT film showed the slightest difference on the 8th day from the beginning of storage. The slow-release composite films could extend the shelf life of pufferfish fillets by 2–3 days at 4 °C ± 1 °C.

Tetrodotoxin (TTX), one of the most potent neurotoxins, poses a significant threat to consumer health. This study presents an advanced analytical method combining ion-paired reagent-assisted dispersive solid-phase extraction (ion-paired-dSPE) with hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS/MS), for the quantification of TTX residues in puffer fish. Edible tissue samples were extracted twice using a 1 % formic acid–methanol solution and purified via optimized ion-paired-dSPE procedures. TTX adsorbed onto the magnetic nano-adsorbents was subsequently eluted with an acetonitrile–water–formic acid solution (60:40:1, v/v/v). Detection was achieved through electrospray ionization in positive mode, with quantification performed in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Correlation coefficients ( r ) in matrix-matched external standard curves ranged from 0.9995 to 0.9997. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) in puffer fish tissues were 0.1 μg/kg and 0.3 μg/kg, respectively. Spiked recoveries at three concentrations in negative tissue samples ranged from 73.4 % to 87.5 %, with precision under 10.6 %. The method was validated in accordance with 2002/657/EC guidelines and successfully applied to TTX detection in cultured puffer fish samples.

Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are a group of antimicrobial agents that have been widely used for therapeutic purposes in clinical medicine for human and veterinary diseases, as well as in aquaculture production. Their residues, however, may survive in foods of animal origin, thus causing health risks for human. In this study, a rapid and sensitive method based on in vivo solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was developed to detect the residues of five FQs in cultured puffer fish ( Takifugu obscurus ). In vitro fiber evaluation experiment demonstrated that, compared with the thicker polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coating (165 µm), the custom-made biocompatible C18-PAN fibers (45 µm) exhibited much higher extraction efficiencies towards FQs (approximately 9–31 times). The custom-made C18-PAN coating also possessed excellent reproducibility in fish muscle with the intra-fiber relative standard deviations (RSDs) ranging from 11.2% to 14.3% (n = 6) and inter-fiber RSDs ranging from 13.1% to 16.1% (n = 6), which was suitable for in vivo sampling. The custom-made SPME fibers were subsequently applied to determine fluoroquinolones in dorsal-epaxial muscle of living puffer fish. The accuracies were verified through the comparison with traditional liquid extraction (LE) method, and the sensitivities were demonstrated to be satisfying with the limits of detection (LODs) ranging from 0.3 ng g −1 to 1.5 ng g −1 . In general, this study presented a convenient and high-efficient method to determine fluoroquinolones in puffer fish by in vivo sampling.

Copper nanoparticles (Cu-NPs) are water pollutants, which has significant toxic environmental effects. However, the effects of Cu-NPs on Takifugu fasciatus are still relatively unknown. Compared with the control (no add CuSO 4 and Cu-NPs). This study aims to describe the pathological changes in the gill and liver of pufferfish exposed to CuSO 4 (Cu 2+ for short) and Cu-NPs dissolved at a concentration of either 20 or 100 μg/L, in a semi-static waterborne exposure regime for 28 days. All Cu treatments resulted in organ injuries, and the pathologies observed following exposure to Cu-NPs were broadly of the same type as those observed following exposure to Cu 2+ . In the gill, these included lamellar fusion, clubbed tips, and mucocytes swollen, and in the liver included oedema, aggregation of blood cells, and necrosis. Furthermore, enzyme activity assays revealed that Ca 2+ -ATP activity significantly increased under the influence of Cu, whilst Na + -K + -ATPase activity was significantly inhibited. In this study, the CRT in T. fasciatus (referred to as Tf CRT) was identified and full-length cDNA sequences were characterized. Subsequently, RT-PCR and western blot analysis were carried out to assess the expressions of Tf CRT in the gill and liver at both the mRNA and protein levels. Under both the Cu-NPs and Cu 2+ treatments, both the mRNA and protein expressions of Tf CRT were considerably higher in the gill and liver compared to that of the control treatment. Furthermore, there were no significant differences between Cu-NPs and Cu 2+ treatment (at the same treatment concentration) in the expressions of Tf CRT at the mRNA or protein levels. Overall, both Cu 2+ and Cu-NPs had negative effects on T. fasciatus , and Cu-NPs had the toxic effects similar to dissolved Cu. Our results provide the ecological safety data service of Cu-NPs in water, and provide a reference for the health T. fasciatus aquaculture.
