Description
Summary:The quality attributes of filleted cod (Gadus morhua) supplied by the industry in packages containing normal atmosphere, modified atmosphere (MAP) and in ice were compared. Fillets were stored at refrigerated temperature (0-4°C) for 15 days and sensory, biochemical and microbiological parameters were evaluated. It was clearly observed that cod fillets placed in ice were of better quality and had shelf life ranging between 11-15 days. Contrary to this result, cod fillets in MAP and normal atmosphere packages indicated poor quality and had shelf life lying between 3-7 days respectively.
