Popis: Salmon is a popular fish with high nutritional and economic value due to its delicious and tender pink flesh rich in omega-3. However, there is a problem with mislabeling other types of fish as salmon in the market, which is misleading for consumers. A study used molecular methods to identify fish species sold as salmon in commercial centers and found that out of the 35 samples analyzed, 33 were indeed salmon, but two were trout. The study highlights the need for strict enforcement of food trade and labeling regulations.
