Popis: | Changes in metmyoglobin (metMb) ratio to total Mb, viable bacterial numbers, sensory evaluation of odor, and K-value were examined for tuna fillets packaged with oxygen-nitrogen gas mixture in low gas-permeable plastic bags during 5°C storage. K-value was not affected by oxygen concentration. MetMb formation, growth of aerobic bacteria, and development of undesirable odor were inhibited by packaging containing less than 0.1% oxygen. Packaging with 4% and 9% oxygen were inferior to that with 21% oxygen (air) because of promoting metMb formation. Packaging with 70% oxygen was effective to keep the fresh red color of dorsal meat with low fat content for short time storage less than 3 days. |
