Fresh fish products are usually more perishable than most other foodstuffs due to their high aw, neutral pH, and presence of autolytic enzymes. The spoilage of fish and shellfish results from changes caused by oxidation of lipids, reactions due to activities of the fishes'own enzymes, and the metabolic activities of microorganisms (Ashie et al., 1996). The rate of deterioration is highly temperature dependent and can be inhibited by the use of low storage
