Résumé

The behavior of the natural microflora of Mediterrannean gilt-head seabream (Sparus aurata) was monitored during aerobic storage at different isothermal conditions from 0 to 15 °C. The growth data of pseudomonad, established as the specific spoilage organisms of aerobically stored gilt-head seabream, combined with data from previously published experiments, were used to model the effect of temperature. The nominal minimum temperature parameters of the Belehradek model for the maximum specific growth rate and the lag phase were determined to be -11.8 and -12.8 °C, respectively. The applicability of the model in predicting pseudomonad growth on fish at fluctuating temperatures was evaluated by comparing predictions with observed growth in experiments under dynamic conditions. Temperature scenarios and simulation of real temperature profiles observed in the fish chill chain were used. The average percent difference between shelf life predicted based on pseudomonad growth and shelf life experimentally determined by sensory analysis for all temperature profiles tested was 5.8%. The model is able to predict accurately fish quality in real-world conditions.
