Summary

THE RESULTS ARE PRESENTED OF A STUDY CARRIED OUT TO EXAMINE THE USE OF CONTROLLED AND MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE STORAGE (60% CO2 AND 40% AIR) FOR COD FILLETS STORED FOR UP TO 15 DAYS. ASSESSMENTS WERE MADE OF THE PRESENCE OF ANAEROBIC AND AEROBIC BACTERIA AS WELL AS ESTIMATES OF TRIMETHYLAMINE AND RAW QUALITY GRADING. MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE STORAGE WAS SHOWN TO BE MORE EFFECTIVE THAN CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERE STORAGE EXTENDING SHELF LIFE, WHILST RETAINING FISH QUALITY. LOWER COUNTS OF ANAEROBIC AND AEROBIC BACTERIA AND LOWER TRIMETHYLAMINE VALUES WERE OBTAINED. (INT. PACKAG. ABSTR., GB., 4, N 5, 1984/05, 476, 1349.
