Abstract Shelf-life studies were carried out on ribbonfish (Trichiurus haumela) cured with red halophilic bacteria (Salinicoccus roseus). Study revealed that the use of salt treated with sodium metabisulphite, sodium acid phosphate, sodium benzoate, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium hexametaphosphate and brifisol extended the shelf-life of cured ribbonfish from 3 to 12 months. The red discolouration was monitored up to the point of spoilage. The TVN and PV in crystalline salt cured ribbonfish control samples increased from 25.3 to 416.7 mg N% and 31.5 to 235.0 meq O sub(2)/kg, respectively during storage period of 12 months. The treatment effectiveness for TVN and PV was more in semi ground salt cured fish than in crystallized salt cured fish. The bacteriological, physico-chemical and sensory quality of the fish cured with treated salt was better than control fish.
