Summary

EFFECTS OF CARBON DIOXIDE MODIFIED ATMOSPHERES ON DEGRADATION OF ADENINE NUCLEOTIDES IN CHILL-STORED WHITEFISH (COREGONUS CLUPEAFORMIS) AND RAINBOW TROUT (SALMO GAIRDNERI) WERE STUDIED. K VALUES (RATIO OF THE SUM OF INOSINE AND HYPOXANTHINE TO THE SUM OF ATP AND RELATED CATABOLITE EXPRESSED AS A PERCENTAGE) WERE DETERMINED DURING STORAGE UP TO 26 DAYS. RESULTS INDICATED CO2 ATMOSPHERES DID NOT ALTER < K > VALUES COMPARED TO THOSE OBSERVED FOR AEROBICALLY HELD FISH. HOWEVER, BOTH CO2 ATMOSPHERES AND POTASSIUM SORBATE-DIPPING OF FILLETS CAUSED DECREASES IN HYPOXANTHINE CONCENTRATIONS COMPARED TO UNTREATED AEROBICALLY HELD SAMPLES.
