Summary

Possibles sources for denaturation or reticulation of proteins are studied by inducing texture changes. Measured are surface hydrophobicity and contents of SH-, SS-, NH2-free and aldehyde groups of sarcoplasmic fractions, rich in myosin or SDS soluble, isolated from the frozen fillet and stored at -30, -22, -15 or -12 deg C for 300 days. Hydrophobicity changes could be related to the increase in SS bridges, ester bindings and aldehyde and NH2-free groups.
