- EFEITO DA ARMAZENAGEM EM REFRIGERADO NA QUALIDADE DE FIAMBRE DE CORVINA COM FIBRAS DIETÉTICAS EMBALADO EM VÁCUO E EM ATMOSFERA MODIFICADAPublication . Patriarca, J.; Ribeiro, A.T.,; Silva, H.; Vieira, H.; Teixeira, B.; Rodrigues, M.J.; Gil, M.; Pousão, Ferreira P.; Mendes, R.; Instituto Português do Mar e da AtmosferaThe development of novel fish-based functional foods is increasing due to consumer’s search for healthier food products to create a daily balanced diet. The final goal of the present work was to evaluate the quality during refrigerated conditions of meagre ham enriched with dietetic fibers and packaged in vacuum and in modified atmosphere (20% or 40% CO2). The proximate chemical composition indicated that meagre ham had 76.7% of moisture, 5.1% of fat, 3.9% of ash, 11.1% of protein and 3.2% fiber. The 55-day stability study revealed that the fish ham‘s shelf life did not vary with different packaging conditions, but was limited by microbial growth. Its quality was acceptable up to thirteen days in refrigerated conditions for all packages used.
