Ice slurry for quality fish products: a review.

Type of article: Article

Summary

For several centuries, ice has been used in order to prevent fish deterioration. Traditionally, several types of ice, such as ice blocks, tubular ice, ice slabs and flake ice have been used. However, the problem with these rudimentary ways of using ice is the slow cooling rates, among other drawbacks. The introduction of ice slurry - a mixture of water and small particles of ice - in fisheries has solved the difficulties. Besides, even though there are some limitations, ice slurries remain a promising food-preservation technology.
