Summary

The microbiological and sensory shelf life of peeled shrimp treated with sodium acetate and stored in ice was more than 17 days. Sodium acetate extended the microbial lag phase and lengthened the generation time. Treatment with sodium acetate maintained better sensory characteristics for peeled shrimp than potassium sorbate combined with bifidobacteria.
