Summary

Fishes were held in cooled water or water with elevated CO2 levels prior to sacrificing and filleting. Other fish were filleted immediately (control group) or 3 hours after transport and harvest (stressed group). All fillets were stored at 1-4 deg C. Fillets of the cool water treatment group were highest in pH, and were significantly the least firm. Log phase growth and spoilage levels of microorganisms were delayed one day more in the CO2 fillets than the other three groups. Cool water treatment fillets were significantly darker than control and stressed fillets.
