Abstract
Fresh hake slices packed in a modified atmosphere with a cryoprotectan t agent (sodium tripolyphosphate) and under chilling conditions showed a reduction of exudate production. However, no improvement was achiev ed in microbiological and chemical parameters used as quality control factors compared with those packed only in a modified atmosphere (MAP) . Thus final results concluded that the shelf-life of fresh hake slice s packed using MAP and sodium tripolyphosphate was shorter than the sh elf-life of fresh hake slices packed using only MAP.
