Abstract
Two hundred and fifty-seven (257) fresh seafood samples from different points of the Baixada Santista production chain were analyzed for sensorial, microbiological, physicochemical, chemical and parasitological aspects. To collect samples, a partnership was established with Federal Inspection Service (FIS), Inspections Service of Sao Paulo State (ISSP), and Sanitary Surveillance Service (SSS) from eight cities of Baixada Santista region. This study aimed to facilitate implementation of public policies that improve quality of seafood marketed to the population of Baixada Santista region. Ninety-four percent of analyzed seafood presented at least one parameter in violation of present national law, indicating a risk to public health in all links of the fresh marine seafood production chain.
