Abstract | ||
Some chemical, physicochemical, bacteriological and organoleptical changes in dry and mixed-salted silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys malaria), were investigated. Butterfly silver carp which had been salted were stored for 6 months at room temperature (25±5°C) and under cold storagfe at (5±1°C). During the storage period, chemical indices of ' freshness and the bacterial count showed increasing trends: they were considerably lower in the dry and mixed-salted stored at the lower temperature. Sensory evaluation indicated that storage at the lower tem- perature could considerably extend the shelf-life of salted fish. | ||
