Author(s) : HENDRIE M. S., CANN D. C.

Summary

THE SHELF LIFE OF FISH IN VACUUM SKIN PACKAGES DEPENDS ON STORAGE TEMPERATURE, SPECIES AND ORIGINAL QUALITY.

WHEN TEMPERATURE IS LOWERED, SHELF LIFE IS EXTENDED AT 278 K (5 DEG C) AND, MORE SIGNIFICANTLY, AT 273 K (0 DEG C). FOR HOT-SMOKED MACKEREL SHELF LIFE IS COMPARATIVELY LONGER AT HIGHER TEMPERATURES.
