Determination and prediction of freezing point for fish and fish products.

Author(s) : MATSUDA Y.

Summary

It is better to preserve fish at lower temperature in unfrozen state for short periods because fish tissue is damaged by freezing process. To store fish preferably, freezing points of fish were tried to determine and predict. Relationships between freezing point and compositions were determined using fish meat paste (surimi) model. The freezing point was related with salt and moisture contents but was not related with fat content. A diagram to predict the freezing point by salt and moisture concentrations was derived from the results. Results were compared with measures and show good agreement.
