Effect of modified atmosphere packaging and superchilled storage on the microbial and sensory quality of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fillets

Sammendrag

Fresh Atlantic salmon fillets packaged under modified atmosphere (MA) (CO2:N-2 60:40) and air was stored at superchilled (-2 degreesC) and chilled (+4 degreesC) temperatures. Changes in sensory scores, microbial growth, headspace gas composition, water loss, and pH were monitored during 24 d of storage. The suprechilled MA packaged salmon maintained a good quality, with negligible microbial growth (<1000 colony-forming units [CFU]/g) for more than 24 d based on both sensory and microbial analyses (aerobic plate count, H2S-producing, and psychorotrophic bacteria). Superchilled salmon in air had a 21-d sensory shelf life, whereas MA and air-stored fillets at chilled conditions was spoiiled after 10 d and 7 d, respectively.
