Summary

Methods for differentiating frozen and unfrozen fish and shellfish and for measuring their freshness using the Torrymeter are reviewed. The meter has been reported to differentiate frozen and unfrozen meats of such species at least as yellowtail, carp, saury, and flatfish but not squid and shrimp. The meter developed originally as a freshness assessor, but has been found able to measure the freshness of yellowtail and some other species of fish, but not that of flatfish, carp and squid. The change in the meter readings during ice storage of yellowtail meat is also described in relation to the change in a freshness index K value.
