Summary

A SELECTION OF FISH FROM THE WARM LOWLAND WATERS OF THE PARANA AND AMAZONIAN BASINS WERE STUDIED WHEN STORED IN CRUSHED ICE. THE PROXIMATE COMPOSITION AND PHYSICAL NATURE OF THESE FISH SPECIES WAS ALSO DETERMINED. A SHELF LIFE OF 25DAYS WAS ESTIMATED FOR SABALO (PROCHILODUS PLATENSIS). PACU (COLOSSOMA MACROPOMUM), CHINCUINA (PSEUDOPLATYSTOMA TIGRINUM) AND TAMBAQUI (COLOSSOMA BRANCHYPOMUM) EXHIBITED SHELF LIVES OF GREATER THAN 40 DAYS. THE SMALLER FISH FROM THIS LOCATION HAD SHELF LIVES OF OVER 30 DAYS FOR CORVINA (PLAGIOSCION SQUAMOSISSIMUS) AND 25 DAYS FOR BAGRE (AGENEIOSUS SPP).
