We analyzed a group of fish without waiting and other fish groups after being kept in 8-10 degrees C for 12, 24, 36 hours. Additionally, sensory analyses were studied by a sensory panel consisting of experienced judges to sensory evaluation. We have been observed significant increases (p < 0.05) in MDA levels and decreases (p < 0.05) in CAT activity of two groups (sudden and struggle death). Using sudden death (unstressed) method, rainbow trout groups showed good quality until to 36th hour, and sensory analyses of struggle death treated groups (stressed) exhibited good quality up to 24th hour. Consequently, we got importance of storage temperature, time and different slaughter methods on biochemical parameters and sensory analyses of some rainbow trout tissues.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSudden deathStruggle deathPost-slaughter timeCatalaseSensory assessmentThe effects of slaughtering methods on physical and biochemical changes in fishArticle2927417482-s2.0-84862551609N/AWOS:000304512900005N/A
