dc.description.abstractPreservation of fish by salt curing is the most popular method. However, the spoilage of cured fish due to red discoloration by halophilic bacterial contamination limits the shelf life. The source of contamination is mainly the salt itself. The present study was undertaken to evaluate a method for reducing the halophilic bacterial load from solar salt. Sun drying of solar salt for 16 days caused a reduction in counts of red halophiles, slime producing halophilic bacteria and Halomonas sp. at the rate of 97.2, 97.2 and 93.5% on ordinary and 97.8, 98.7 and 89.4% on black cemented platforms, respectivelyen_US
