Changes in the Quality and Microflora of Yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata Muscles during Cold Storage.

ABSTRACT: We evaluated the changes in the quality and microflora of yellowtail flesh cold-stored until spoilage. Based on the sensory evaluation, odor palatability was deemed unacceptable for dark muscle (DM) and the dorsal part of the ordinary muscle (OD) after >10 days and 14 of storage, respectively. Log 7 CFU/g in DM as well as OD was obtained on days 10 (Aeromonas spp.) and 14 (Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas spp.) of storage, whereas log 5 (Brocothrix thermosphacta) and 6 (H₂S-producing bacteria) CFU/g in them were obtained on day 14 of storage. In these bacteria, the viable bacterial counts of Pseudomonas spp. and Aeromonas spp. in DM were significantly higher than those in OD only at some storage times. Amplicon sequencing revealed that in bot
