摘要:With increasing production of farmed barramundi from Lake Argyle, an incidence of flavour
taint has been reported from the market (Glencross, 2006). The taint is reputedly muddy and
earthy in flavour, which is characteristic of the presence of the compounds geosmin (GSM)
and/or 2-methyl-isoborneol (MIB) (Howgate, 2004). Problems with such flavour taint are
well documented in other fish species produced from freshwater systems (Lovell, 1983; Bett,
1997; Zimba and Grimm, 2003; Grimm et al., 2004; Howgate, 2004; Robertson et al., 2005).
The GSM and MIB are noted metabolites produced from algae and cyanobacteria found in
freshwater systems (Brown et al., 1982; Bett, 1997; Howgate, 2004).
