Bacteriology of Spoilage of Fish Muscle: II. Incidence of Spoilers During Spoilage1

AUTOR(ES)

Adams, R.

RESUMO

A test medium consisting of a sterile raw press juice from fish muscle was used to determine the incidence of spoilage bacteria on stored fillets of English sole (Parophrys vetulus). The initial load of spoilers was shown to be consistently below 10%. This percentage rose but slightly toward the middle of the spoilage runs, and actually declined when spoilage was most apparent both organoleptically and chemically. Further evidence implicating the Pseudomonas and Achromobacter groups in the spoilage of fresh fish is presented.
