Summary

ROCKFISH FILLETS WERE DIPPED IN EITHER DISTILLED DEIONIZED WATER (DDW), A SOLUTION OF 1% TETRASODIUM EDTA PLUS 5 PPM CHLORTETRACYCLINE (CTC) OR 1% K-SORBATE PLUS 5 PPM CTC. THEY WERE VACUUM PACKED AND STORED AT 275 K (2 DEG C). THE SORBATE/CTC GROUP DIFFERED LESS FROM FRESH FILLETS THAN DID FILLETS DIPPED IN DDW FOR PLATE COUNT, PH, REDOX POTENTIAL, AND TMA AND NH3 CONCENTRATIONS. FILLETS TREATED WITH EDTA/CTC DIFFERED TO A GREATER EXTENT FROM FRESH FILLETS. RESULTS WERE CORROBORATED BY SENSORY ANALYSES. FISH FILLETS DIPPED IN A SOLUTION OF 1% K-SORBATE PLUS 5 PPM CTC RETAINED ODOR AND FLAVOR PROPERTIES OF FRESH FILLETS BETTER THAN THE EDTA/CTC TREATED FILLETS AFTER 14 DAYS OF STORAGE.
