Date Issued 1985 (iso8601)
Abstract Iced storage life of pearl spot (Etroplus suratensis) was determined bacteriologically, biochemically and organoleptically. The total aerobic plate count increased from 10^4/g muscle to 10^8/g in 23 days. The total volatile base nitrogen registered gradual increase during storage, while extractable sacroplasmic and myofibrillar proteins decreased. Organoleptically the fish became unacceptable in 10-14 days in ice. The results indicated that pearl spot remained in more or less prime condition in ice for 8-10 days.
