Abstract

Chemical Engineering Food Sciences
Combinations of potassium sorbate and polyphosphate, in conjunction with vacuum or modified atmosphere packaging, were assessed for their preservative effects on morwong fillets (pH 6.75) stored at 4°C. Vacuum packaged and/or frozen fillets were used as comparisons for microbiological and taste panel analysis. A combination of potassium sorbate, polyphosphate and 100% CO2 was the most effective packaging regime. Potassium sorbate on vacuum packaged fish was more effective than a 100% CO2 atmosphere alone. Polyphosphate had no apparent additional effect on fillets stored under vacuum with or without potassium sorbate.
