Summary

DEBONED MINCES PREPARED FROM FISH SPECIES PREDOMINANT IN THE MEXICAN SHRIMP BY-CATCH WERE EXAMINED WITH RESPECT TO THEIR STABILITY DURING STORAGE FOR 10 MONTHS AT 253 K (-20.C). REDUCTIONS IN THE EXTRACTABILITY OF SALT-SOLUBLE PROTEINS, PARTICULARLY IN THE INITIAL STORAGE PHASE, WERE SHOWN TO INFLUENCE THE TEXTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MINCES, ALBEIT TO A MINIMAL EXTENT. CONSIDERABLE VARIABILITY IN THE COLOUR OF MINCES FROM DIFFERENT SPECIES WAS OBSERVED AND A WASHING PROCEDURE WHICH EFFECTIVELY REMOVES DARK PIGMENTS IS DESCRIBED. IN GENERAL, THE ACCEPTABILITY OF THE PRODUCTS WAS MAINTAINED THROUGHOUT THE STORAGE PERIOD.
