Comparison of postmortem changes in ATP-related compounds, protein degradation and endogenous enzyme activity of white muscle and dark muscle from common carp (Cyprinus carpio) stored at 4 °C
Postmortem changes in white and dark muscles of carp were investigated. Dark muscle had a lower content of IMP and a higher K value. Activities of ADA, ACP, cathepsins B and B + L were higher in dark muscle.
