    Hi Peter,

    In the early 70's, I worked at the Halifax lab of the Fisheries Research
    Board (FRB) of Canada (later called Dept. of Fisheries and Oceans, Halifax
    Laboratory). I've just located a paper in my files which contains a
    reference to a paper by Hess, don't know if it's the one you're looking
    for:

    Hess, E. Contr. Canad. Biol. Fish. 7, 149-163, 1932.

    The paper containing the above reference is:
    Dyer, W.J., F. E. Dyer and M. Snow. 1946. Amines in Fish Muscle III.
    Spoilage of Iced Eviscerated Cod. J. Fisheries Res. Bd. of Canada 6(6):
    403-413.

    I also worked at the the DFO Vancouver Laboratory, and that library held
    all the Pacific region FRB and DFO research bulletins and reports, plus
    some from the Atlantic region. When the Vancouver lab closed, the reports
    were sent to DFO's Downtown Library, so you may find it useful to contact
    the latter. It's possible that the Downtown Library has moved the reports
    over to the Pacific Biological Station Library, the main DFO lab still
    doing fisheries research in BC. For contact info. on both libraries, see
    http://www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/pages/libraries-bibliotheques/default_e.htm.

    Hope this helps!
                                        :-) Denise

    Help in tracing a reference

    Dear All

    I am reviewing the use of TVB as an index of spoilage and am seeking help
    in
    tracking down a reference. It appears in the classic paper: Lücke, F.,
    Geidel, W., 1935, Determination of volatile basic nitrogen in fish as a
    measure of their freshness, Zeitschrift für Untersuchung der Lebensmittel,

    70, 441-458. The citation as it appears in the paper is 'Hess: Fisheries
    Experimental Station (Atlantic) 7 Nr 13 Series C Industrial Nr 5 (1932)
    Toronto'. The paper includes a method for determining TVB. The British
    Library, which is usually very good at supplying documents and has copies
    of
    Progress Reports of the Atlantic Biological Stations of the Fisheries
    Research Board of Canada, can not trace the paper from this reference.
    Does
    anyone out there know this paper or can help me with the full journal
    reference? Better still, can anyone supply me with a copy.

    Best wishes

    Peter Howgate
