Summary
From the microbiological point of view, the shelf life of chilled tuna meat is extended by one week when CO2-enriched atmospheres are used. The formation of metmyoglobine is minimal in O2-enriched atmospheres. The optimum modified atmosphere is a mixture of CO2-O2 (40-60), which helps stabilize the colour and microflora of the tuna.
