Comparative studies on quality changes of air blast and plate frozen mackerel (rastrelliger kanagurta) during frozen storage
(Society of Fisheries Technologists (India), Cochin, 2008) Lakshmisha, I.P.; Ravishankar, C.N.; Gopal, T.K.S.; Ninan, G.
Mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta Cuvier ) frozen in commercial plate and air blast freezers were studied to compare the quality changes during frozen storage (-l8°C), The frozen fish were sealed in polythene bags of food grade Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), 120 gauge thick ccnfornling,tc IS: 9845 = 1981) then packed in S ply corrugated fiberboard carton and were analyzed for changes in quality during storage at -l8°C. The moisture and protein content in air blast frozen samples ere decreased (pO.OS} in PV of both the samples. TBA of air blast frozen samples showed an increasing trend (pO.OS). The TMA-N and TVB-N of both the samples showed an increasing trend but air blast frozen samples showed little higher values (p
