| dc.description.abstract | The freshness of mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta), oil sardine {Sardinella longiceps), common shark (Scoliodon laticadus), croaker (Johnius sp.). lizard fish (Saurida tumbil) and seer fish (Scomberomorws commerson), iced immediately after catch, was assesed by using Torrymeier as well as by other biochemical and microbiological tests and compared with sensory scores obtained. The Torrymeter readings generally showed good correlation with sensory scores for all the species studied except shark. The decrease of Torrymeter readings was fairly consistant and gradual only in initial storage period, indicating the usefulness of Torrymeter in measuring the initial loss of freshness of icestored fish. It was observed that fat content of fish in some way interferes with the reading of the instrument. | en_US |
