The aim of this study was to develop a shelf life prediction model for aerobically stored gutted and whole rainbow trout. Logistic model was used to determine the specific growth rates of total mesophilic aerobic bacteria, total psychrophilic aerobic bacteria, Pseudomonas spp., Enterobacteriaceae, and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) for the samples stored at different temperatures (2°C, 5°C, 10°C, 15°C, 20°C, and 25°C). To describe the effect of temperature on the growth of bacteria, the square root model was used. The validation of the developed shelf life prediction model was carried out using whole (ungutted) rainbow trout at constant temperatures. The bias and accuracy factors of predicted values were within the range of 0.80–1.20, where the model could be valid. The shelf life of whole and gutted aerobically stored rainbow trout can be predicted by the model accurately at any temperature between 2-25°C.
