Summary

STORAGE STABILITY OF FROZEN RED HAKE BLOCKS OVER A 6-MONTH PERIOD WAS STUDIED UNDER COMMERCIAL CONDITIONS WITH PROCESSING MODIFICATIONS. THE RATE OF DMA (DIMETHYLAMINE) FORMATION WAS SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER IN SAMPLES DIPPED IN POLYPHOSPHATE AND ERYTHORBATE COMPARED TO A REFERENCE OR TO A 5-DAY AGED SAMPLE. THERE WERE NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN THE RATE OF DECREASE OF EXTRACTABLE PROTEIN NITROGEN OVER THE 24-WEEK PERIOD. SAMPLES FROM AGED FISH ARE GENERALLY MORE ACCEPTABLE FROM A FLAVOR AND TEXTURE STAND-POINT THAN THE OTHER TREATED SAMPLES. MECHANICAL SHEAR FORCES TENDED TO BE HIGHER FOR SAMPLES DIPPED IN POLYPHOSPHATE-ERYTHORBATE AND LOWEST FOR 5-DAY SAMPLES AMONG TREATED FILLETS.
