P. aDifferent tools to trace geographic origin and seasonality of croaker (Micropogonias furnieri).h[electronic resource] c2015 aAutoria: FABÍOLA HELENA [i.e. DOS SANTOS] FOGAÇA. aThe aim of this study was to use proximate chemical composition, macro and trace elements, fatty acid profile and stable isotopes as traceability tools to assess geographic origin and seasonality of croaker (Micropogonias furnieri). Croaker from Parnaíba contained higher ash in July and lower fat content than croaker from Santos. In contrast, croaker from Santos had statistically higher proportion of 16:1n-9þ16:1n-7, 20:1n-11, 20:1n-9, MUFA and n-3/n-6 ratio than croaker from Parnaíba. Concerning seasonality, croaker caught in July had significantly higher amounts of 14:0, 15:0, 16:1n-9þ16:1n-7 and saturated fatty acids than fish caught in December. Concerning elements, significant differences were also detected between seasons for Cl, Ca, Fe, Sr and S, whereas differences between geographic origins were only observed with K. d13 C and d15N were statistically different between geographic origins, whereas differences between seasons were only detected in d15N ratio of croaker from Santos. Fatty acids, minerals and stable isotope are effective methods to trace geographic origin and seasonality of croaker. Nonetheless, further investigation is still required with larger samples of croaker to enable the implementation of fatty acids, elements or stable isotope as authenticity tools by food control agencies. aFatty acids aIsotopes aMinerals aTraceability aÁcido Graxo aIsótopo aMicropogonias Furnieri aMineral aRastreabilidade1 aMAULVAULT, A.
