Microorganisms on Commercially Processed Alaskan Finfish
ABSTRACT Whole and processed Alaskan fish were examined for aerobic plate counts, total coliforms, and Escherichia coli. Washing whole salmon and halibut reduced skin microbial counts from 10 3 /cm 2 to 10 2 /cm 2 . Whole and dressed fish had coliform counts less than 13/cm 2 and E. coli counts less...
