Trachurus murphyi is a fish species of the family scad of the suborder percophagus. It is widely distributed in the Northwest Pacific Ocean, including the East China Sea, Yellow Sea, and seawaters of Japan and Korea, and has high economic value. T. murphyi is an underused medium-fat fish, captured in large volumes by countries such as China, Peru, and Chile, and great interest has been accorded to its commercialisation (Zhao et al., 2019). Fresh Trachurus is perishable, and the sensory properties of fish deteriorate with storage because of chemical and biological transformations. Protein oxidation has been deemed as a major contributor to the deterioration of fish (Zhang, Shan, et al., 2020).Deterioration of fish quality may occur under degradation, denaturation, or aggregation of proteins during transportation and storage. Several studies have reported the changes in the structure and physicochemical properties of myofibrillar protein during storage, suggesting that protein denaturation is a major contributor of shelf-life decline, nutrient loss, and structural changes in fish (Alak et al., 2021;Isık et al., 2020). Protein oxidation is a complicated phenomenon that involves amino acid residues, buried hydrophobic exposure, and protein unfolding upon heating (Dericioglu at al., 2019). This process leads to further chemical modifications in amino acid side chains, triggers polymerisation, disruption of peptide backbones, and following aggregation, it involves intermolecular protein
