A chemical assessment of freshness in stored adductor muscle from scallops
The postmortem catabolism of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in cold-stored adductor muscles from scallops (Zygochlamys patagónica) was studied. Changes in the pH of stored muscles were also studied. The ATP content increased for a short time after death and afterwards decreased up to 24 hr of storage....
