Abstract Spoilage potential of selected bacterial cultures isoleted from tropical fish and prawn was studied using sterile fish muscle blocks and sterile fish muscle press juice at three different temperatures, namely, 28+/-2 degree C, 8+/-1 degree C, 1+/-1 degree C. The selected culteres included pseudomonas sp. vibrio sp; moraxella spp; Acinetobacter spp;Flavobacteria/cytophaga spp;micrococcus spp;arthrobacter spp;and alcaligenes spp; at 28+/-2 degree C most of the cultures were capable of spoilage of fish muscle. At 8+/-1 degree C,nearly 25-50% of the pseudomonas vibrio, moraxella and acinetobacter strains showed spoilage capability, but none of the micrococcus, flavobacteria/cytophaga, arthrobacter and alcaligenes spp. could cause spoilage. At 1+/-1 degree C, majority of the pseudonomas group II,III and IV strains were spoilers, while less than 25% of pseudonomas group I, vibrio, moraxella and acinetobacter strains and none of flavobacteria/cytophaga, micrococcus, arthrobacter and alcaligenes were capable of spoilage.
