Summary

Protein denaturation was studied during frozen storage at -18 deg C for five months by using monosodium glutamate (3%), lactose (3%), milk whey (3.85%) and a mixture of glucose (4%)-sorbitol (4%)-polyphosphate (0.2%) as cryoprotectants. Surimi quality was evaluated through biochemical, physical and organoleptic tests. These changes were also corroborated by the panelists. The best cryoprotection effect was achieved from sodium glutamate at 3% w/w in surimi. Milk whey gave the lowest protein solubility values but the highest calcium ATPase activity. Correlations between certain biochemical, physical and organoleptic parameters versus time at -18 deg C were high.
