Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Quality index method (QIM) was developed for whole (W) and gutted (G) rainbow trout during ice storage. Draft schemes were modified and final schemes consisted of 30 and 15 demerit points, and 12 and 14 days of shelf life was found for whole and gutted rainbow trout, respectively. Linear regression was calculated with storage time and correlation of QI scores was found to be 0.98 and 0.99 for W and G samples, respectively. Moreover, the developed QIM for W and G rainbow trout with this study is a nondestructive and rapid method for the sensory evaluation of rainbow trout.
