Author(s) : Ifremer, FIOM, ANDRADE A., NUNES M. L., BATISTA I.

Summary

As an alternative the Quality Index Method (QIM) has been used and considered suitable for different species. So, the aim of the work was to develop QIM schemes for European sardine, horse mackerel and Atlantic mackerel. The results obtained indicated that such schemes can be useful for the evaluation of freshness of these three species. According to this method it was also observed that the highest rate of freshness loss was recorded in European sardine followed by Atlantic mackerel and horse mackerel.
