Summary

Studies were carried out to evaluate the microbiological profile, shelf-life and quality of Nagli fish (Sillago sihama) subjected to gamma irradiation. Non-irradiated samples were subjected to gamma irradiation. Non-irradiated samples were unacceptable organoleptically after 7-8 days of storage at 1-2 deg C while irradiated samples (2 and 3 kilograys) were acceptable up to 19 days. Dressing prior to irradiation had no additional advantage to shelf life over whole fish. Bacteriological studies were also performed. Results are given.
