Description:Present packaging and handling methods extensively limit refrigerated storage life of freshwater fish. Our objective was to determine the feasibility of extending the shelf life of refrigerated fish through advanced storage technology. This included modifications of the vacuum packaging concept and controlled atmospheric storage utilizing different mixtures of CO2, N2, and O2. We also wanted to assess the physical and microbiological qualities of freshwater smelt and herring fillets from Lake Superior at 1 degree C, using pH, aerobic, anaerobic and psychrotrophic bacterial counts, rancidity and sensory analyses as parameters of quality measurements.
