Type of article: Article

Summary

The authors conducted a microbiological study on fresh crab meat stored at 4°C packed in two different types of packaging. It was found that whilst the packagings gave rise to the same shelf life, the CO2 concentration is the key factor affecting the shelf life. CO2 build-up causes fast deterioration of crab meat.
