Summary

FRESH FILLETS OF FLOUNDER (POGONIAS CROMIS), RED SNAPPER (LUTJANUS BLACKFORDII), CROAKER (MICROPOGON UNDULATUS) AND OCEAN PERCH (SEBASTES MARINUS) WERE STUDIED, AND WERE PACKAGED IN PLASTIC FOAM TRAYS LINED WITH ABSORBENT PADS, OVERWRAPPED, AND SUBSEQUENTLY STORED AT 275 K FOR 8 DAYS. GROSS AND NET WEIGHTS DECREASED WHEREAS THE PERCENT DRIP INCREASED FOR ALL FISH DURING STORAGE. EXCEPT FOR CROAKER, THE TOTAL MOISTURE CONTENT REMAINED VIRTUALLY UNCHANGED. THE ACCEPTABILITY DECREASED AS THE TRIMETHYLAMINE-NITROGEN CONCENTRATIONS INCREASED.
