SUMMARY:

The quality of the fish is directly related to the handling of the fish in the capture vessels and the time they remain stored until they are processed in the industry. The project aimed to determine the quality profile of the Prionace glauca eviscerated on board. Three treatments were applied with 16 repetitions: captured and stored over 11 days; captured and stored in the period above 6 to 10 days; and captured and stored for up to 5 days. All samples collected were from the same vessel and cruise. An average of 900g of muscle per individual was collected, and these were fractionated, stored in plastic bags, and frozen for later delivery to the laboratory. These samples were subjected to physical-chemical, microbiological and sensory analyzes, the results being compared with what is recommended by the laws that support the quality of the fish. It was observed that the pH in all groups was above allowed by the legislation. The level of mercury in all samples was significantly below the maximum allowed limit. Only one sample was positive for Salmonella spp., Indicative of contamination at the time of evisceration. As for the levels of total volatile bases, the results obtained showed that this index is not a trustworthy criterion for indicating degrees of freshness. Sensory parameters were different in all groups evaluated. Based on the results it is concluded that the quality of the meat of P. glauca is influenced by the storage time, by the good handling practices on board, and that the concentration of mercury in this species that inhabits Brazilian waters is minimal, when compared to other catch regions in the world.
