Summary

Effects of inducing covalent crosslinks in surimi gels by adding potassium bromate or 1-ethyl-3 (3-dimethylamino propyl) carbodiimide (EDC) were investigated. Thermorheological properties compared to a control (no additive) were determined by torsion, dynamic (small strain) and stress relaxation testing. Profiles of gels with increased covalent cross-linking induced by potassium bromate or EDC showed increased rubber-elastic behaviour.
