Summary

This is a Spanish translation of a paper presented at the IIR meeting held in Aberdeen, UK, 1990 (see IIR Bulletin, reference 1992-1226). Little research has been done on the influence of processing, handling, washing and rinsing fish. Some studies have shown that stress in living fish has a significant effect on pre-rigor and rigor time. Mechanical stress of in-rigor fish may lead to gaping of fillets and softer flesh. Rigor also leads to contraction of the fish, which considerably reduces the length of the fillets.
