Summary

MINCE, SALT-ADDED SURIMI, AND LOW-SALT SURIMI PREPARED FROM ATLANTIC POLLOCK HAD DIFFERENT PROTEIN, SODIUM CHLORIDE, AND CARBOHYDRATE LEVELS. SAMPLES WERE STEAMED, COOLED, AND CO-INOCULATED WITH AEROMONAS HYDROPHILA AND PSEUDOMONAS FRAGI. JARS CONTAINING MODIFIED ATMOSPHERE (MA)-STORED SAMPLES WERE FLUSHED SO THAT INITIAL HEADSPACE COMPOSITION WAS 51% N2, 13% O2 AND 36% CO2. THESE, AND SAMPLES UNDER AIR, WERE INCUBATED AT 278 AND 286 K (5 AND 13 DEG C). HEADSPACE COMPOSITION OF SAMPLE JARS DETERMINED THROUGHOUT STORAGE AT 278 K INDICATED THAT GREATER GROWTH OCCURRED ON AIR-STORED MINCE AND LOW-SALT SURIMI THAN ON AIR-STORED SALT-ADDED SURIMI, OR ON MA-STORED SAMPLES. RESULTS INDICATED THAT A. HYDROPHILA WAS QUITE CAPABLE OF COMPETING WITH P. FRAGI ON MINCE AND LOW-SALT SURIMI STORED UNDER AIR OR MA AT BOTH 278 AND 286 K.
