Summary

Activity of fish muscle glutathione peroxidase, which presumably protects muscle from oxidative deterioration during storage and processing, was found in both Japanese jack mackerel and skipjack tuna. Activity of the peroxidase and level of reduced glutathione (enzyme substrate) decreased during 5 days storage at 4 deg C. Lipid hydroperoxides were substantially formed in the fish muscles during the storage.
