Effects of freezing and storage temperatures at -25 to -60 deg C on fat fish quality.

Summary

Few experiments at storage temperatures below -30 deg C are found, but use of temperatures of -50 to -70 deg C are frequently used in Japan, especially for storage of tuna. Fish, and especially fat fish, have low storage life compared to most other food. To increase storage life and/or improve quality of products after normal storage periods, storage tests at temperatures down to -60 deg C were performed. To reduce size of low temperature refrigeration systems and energy cost, also two-stage freezing at -35 and -60 deg C was compared with freezing at -60 deg C.
