Effect of different packaging on the shelf life of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) fillets stored at 4 ºC

Authors

Abstract:

Freshness is one of the main quality attributes for processing, marketing and consumption of fish. Fish is increasingly becoming the favored food of people in many countries as it is rich in proteins. However, the disadvantage associated with broader consumption of fish products is their comparatively short shelf-life. Therefore, effective methods for extending shelf-life and improving quality of fresh silver carp fillets are necessary. The goal of this study was to evaluate the biochemical and microbial changes of silver carp fillets in different packaging including aerobic, vacuum and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) when stored at 4&ordm;C for 15 days. Data obtained from these tests was averaged and subjected to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) using SPSS software. The fillets packaged at MAP had significantly (p<0.05) lower pH, TVB-N, TBA and PV contents than those packaged at vacuum and aerobic packaging. The increase in viable bacterial population was significantly (p<0.05)higher in samples packed at vacuum and aerobic. The results showed MAP combined with refrigerated storage resulted in an extension of the shelf-life of fillets; up to 11 days at MAP, 12 days at vacuum compared to 3 days in aerobic samples. &nbsp;

Aspects of Embryonic and Larval Development in Bighead Carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and Silver Carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix

As bighead carp Hypophthalmichthysnobilis and silver carp H. molitrix (the bigheaded carps) are poised to enter the Laurentian Great Lakes and potentially damage the region's economically important fishery, information on developmental rates and behaviors of carps is critical to assessing their ability to establish sustainable populations within the Great Lakes basin. In laboratory experiments,...

The Effect of Different Pre-Fried Temperatures on Physical and Chemical Characteristics of Silver Carp Fish (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) Nuggets

In present study the effect of different pre-frying temperatures in sunflower oil on physical and chemical characteristics of silver carp fish nuggets (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) were studied. After prepared, the fish nuggets were pre-fried in sunflower oil heated to 150, 170 and 190°C. The measurements included: the proximate composition (protein, moisture, fat and ash), physical experiments...

Effects of Mentha pulegium water extract dipping on quality and shelf life of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) during superchilled storage

The effects of Mentha pulegium water extract dipping on quality and shelf life of silver carp during superchilled storage were investigated. Fish samples were treated with water extract of 1 and 3%M.pulegium, and then stored at -3 οC for 30 days. The control and the treatedfish samples were analyzed periodically for chemical (pH, PV, TBA, TVB-N), and sensory characteristics. The results indicat...
