    Dear listers,
    I am trying to find information about salt (NaCl) content in tuna. I know
    that the absortion of salt occurs when improperly freezing tuna in brine
    but I'd like to know the process, the reason for this absortion, etc. I am
    also looking for rapid salt content detection systems in tuna. Most
    methods consist on titration. Is there any other rapid reliable method not
    based in titration? What about legislation? I don't find any for salt
    content in tuna products.

    Thank you much,
