"There is a certain relation between rigor mortis and the cold storage of fish which is of great economic value. At present, cold storage of fish is not considered a success -- the cold storage product being generally dry, tasteless and sometimes even disagreeable in flavour. In Canada, where we have such an extensive stretch of country in which salt water fish may not be obtained except by cold storage — it is a problem to discover a successful method of preserving the fish from the ’gluts' in order that no wastage is encountered and also so the people of Canada may have ’fresh’ fish from the beginning to the end of the same year. And then there is the possibility of an export trade in fresh fish beoause at present the supply exceeds the demand"--page [1]. Fishery products Preservation Canada. Rigor mortis.
