Summary

THE EFFECTS OF FROZEN STORAGE TEMPERATURES ON THE FORMATION OF DISULFIDES AND THE DENATURATION OF ACTOMYOSIN (AM), EXTRACTED FROM MILKFISH DORSAL MUSCLE, WERE INVESTIGATED. THE ACTIVITIES OF CALCIUM-ATPASE AND MAGNESIUM(CALCIUM)-ATPASE, CALCIUM-SENSITIVITY AND AM SOLUBILITY IN 0.6 M POTASSIUM CHLORIDE DECREASED AT A HIGHER RATE AT 253 K (-20 DEG C) THAN AT 238 K (-35 DEG C). THE SOLUBLE AND INSOLUBLE PROTEINS INCREASED AT A MUCH HIGHER RATE AT 253 K THAN AT 238 K. DURING THE FREEZING PROCESS, THE TOTAL SULFHYDRYLS DECREASED WITH A FASTER NOTE AT 253 K THAN AT 238 K, SUGGESTING THAT MORE DISULFIDES FORMED IN SAMPLES AT 253 K THAN AT 238 K. DURING STORAGE, DISULFIDES FORMED AT 253 K BUT NOT AT 238 K.
