Summary

Cryoprotectants other than sucrose/sorbitol were evaluated to reduce the sweetness of restructured trout products during frozen storage. Bacterial growth, lipid oxidation, thaw loss, cook yield, colour, and texture were evaluated after 1 day, 3 months, and 6 months of storage at -20 °C. Sucrose/sorbitol, trehalose, and trehalose/sorbitol at 8% equally exhibited a cryoprotective action and minimized thaw loss and texture changes, whereas sodium lactate did not at 2% during 6 months of frozen storage. Cryoprotectants and frozen storage time did not affect bacterial growth and lipid oxidation of raw products.
