The effect of the combined application of ozonized water pretreatment and ozonized flake ice (O+OIce) as compared with traditional flake ice (CK), ozonized flake ice (OIce), and ozonized water pretreatment and traditional flake ice (O) was investigated for the storage of Japanese sea bass. Microbiological, chemical, and sensory analysis and moisture content were carried out throughout a storage period of 18 days. A slower increase of total viable mesophilic count (TVC), total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) was observed for O+OIce as compared with OIce, O, and CK. Treatment of O+OIce also allowed a better control of pH as compared with OIce, O, and CK. None of the treatments resulted in a significant difference in myofibrillar protein extractability and moisture content. The shelf life of Japanese sea bass treated with CK, OIce, O, and O+OIce, determined by sensory evaluation, was 9, 15, 12, and more than 18 days, respectively. Principal component analysis results showed that the treatments significantly affected the fish quality during storage, and the sensory attributes had a significant correlation with TVB-N, TVC, and TBARS. In conclusion, the combined application of ozonized water and ozonized flake ice had the best effect on fish quality maintenance.
