چکیده
The purpose of this work was to assess the quality of pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) and tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) gutted and stored on ice for a period of 19 days. Color, texture, pH, acid value, peroxide value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, total volatile bases and counts of aerobic mesophilic heterotrophic and psychrotrophic bacteria assessments were performed in the meat of tambaqui and pacu gutted and stored on ice for different periods. We concluded that tambaqui and pacu, when gutted and stored on ice, continue to be fit for consumption, up until the 18th and 11th day of storage, respectively.

Measurement of blood parameters has been used for many years as a tool for monitoring the health of fish. The present study investigated the effects of a natural infestation of Dolops carvalhoi Lemos de Castro, 1949, on red blood cells, thrombocytes and white blood cell counts, as well as plasma glucose and serum electrolyte levels in hybrid tambacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus x Colossoma macropom...
