Summary

RESULTS SHOW A GREAT INFLUENCE OF THE BIOLOGICAL CONDITION ON KEEPING TIME IN ICE. THEY SUGGEST THAT IN PRE-SPAWNING CONDITION THE WHOLE FISH CAN BE STORED UP TO 12 DAYS WHILE IN POST-SPAWNING CONDITION THE KEEPING TIME CANNOT EXCEED 6DAYS. THE GUTTING COULD LENGTHEN THE POSSIBLE STORAGE TIME IN THE POST-SPAWNING CONDITION FOR UP TO 2 DAYS. NEVERTHELESS THE POST-SPAWNING FISH QUICKLY LOSES ITS QUALITY 2-3 DAYS AFTER CATCHING. THE POSSIBILITY OF UTILIZING STANDARD WHITE FISH PROCESSING MACHINES AND THE INFLUENCE OF PARASITES ARE ALSO DISCUSSED.
