Summary

THE ICED STORAGE CHARACTERISTICS AND SHELF LIFE OF CULTURED MAJOR CARPS, NAMELY, ROHU (LABEO ROHITA), MRIGAL (CIRRHINUS MRIGALA) AND CATLA (CATLA CATLA) WERE STUDIED. THE CHANGES IN SALT EXTRACTABLE NITROGEN, WATER SOLUBLE NITROGEN, NON-PROTEIN NITROGEN AND TOTAL VOLATILE BASE NITROGEN WERE STUDIED.
