The above named fillets were soaked for one hour were investigated the different NaCl solutions ,and another group were sprayed with Lactic Acid Bacteria metabolites on the rate of 10%(VW) ml100gm and left for an hour . Thereafter , the fillet samples were packed into poly ethylene sacks under vacuum and stored under freezing temp. ( - 18± 2 )°C for 90 days. The obtained results could be summarized into:Application of lactic acid bacteria metabolites caused a decrease in pH value , similarly the effect of storage period in respect to the Epiniphilus coioides compared to that of the Scomberiodes commersonianus fillets , the concentration of NaCl solution caused the opposite effect on the pH value. Peroxide number was decreased with application of the NaCl solution , but increased with the increase of storage period . peroxide number values were 1.31 ,1.42 ,1.51 and 1.61 (meq kg ) for zero day of storage for the treatment of 0 , 2 ,4 and 6 NaCl % respectively , for the Epiniphilus coioides and Scomberiodes commersonianus fillets . These numbers were decreased by addition of the Lactic acid bacteria products. Besides , results shown a lower peroxide number for the and Scomberiodes commersonianus compared to that of Epiniphilus coioides fillets . peroxide number were 1.61 ,1.24,1.23 ( meq kg ) for the metabolic products treatment 0%, 10% Bb ,10 %La respectively , on zero day .Total volatile nitrogen were higher for the treatment of higher concentration of NaCl solution reaching the values of 14.95 ,15.08 ,15.11,15.23 mg N100gm for the 0,2,4and 6 %NaCl at zero day , respectively ,in the Scomberiodes commersonianus fillets. But the TVN decreased due to application of metabolic products , whereas , they were increased as storage increased. TVN values for the metabolic product treatment 0%,10%Bb and 10%La 14.95,14.87,14.90 mg N100 gm. respectively, in the zero day in Scomberiodes commersonianus fillets. TVN values appeared to be lower in Scomberiodes commersonianus fillets compared with Epiniphilus coioides fillets.
