Effects of different thawing methods on the quality of meagre fillets
Genç, Ísmail Yüksel; Esteves, E.; Aníbal, J.; Diler, AbdullahThe aim of this study was to determine the effect of different thawing methods (air, refrigerator, water and microwave) on physical, chemical and microbiological quality of meagre fillets which were frozen and stored at -20°C for 21 days. The samples were compared for colour changes, pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), hardness, adhesiveness, total viable count (TVC), total psychrophilic count (TPC) and ...
Effects of chilled storage on quality of vacuum packed meagre fillets
Genç, Ísmail Yüksel; Esteves, E.; Aníbal, J.; Diler, AbdullahThe aim of this study was to experimentally assess several quality indices of meagre Argyrosomus regius (Asso, 1801) fillets packed in air (AP) and vacuum (VP) stored chilled (+4 C) for up to 13 days. Considering our experimental data on concentration of bacterial counts, shelf-life is estimated at ca. 6 days for AP fillets and an additional 3–5 days for VP meagre fillets. Total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) ...
