Abstract

This study evaluated the sensory characteristics of oyster (Ostrea edulis) samples during refrigeration at the temperatures of 4°C, 7°C and 15°C at several time points (one, three, five, seven, nine and eleven days). The indicators of shellfish quality (the appearance of the shell, the colour of the intervalval fluid, the colour of the edible shellfish part, consistency and smell) were examined and assigned 0 – 3 points. Changes in sensory characteristics of sample oysters stored at 4°C and 7°C occured on the seventh, and of those stored at 15°C on the fifth day.
