Abstract Milk fish collected from brackishwater culture ponds was dressed and dried at 60 degree C for 24 h and biochemical changes taking place during drying were studied. Alpha amino nitrogen (AAN) showed a slight increase but total free amino acids (FFA) showed significant reduction during 24 h drying. The variation in individual free amino acid was found to be different for each amino acid. Salt soluble nitrogen and SH group decreased considerably as a result of drying. Electrophoretic study showed a decrease in the number of high molecular weight and low molecular weight protein fractions, but intermediate molecular weight proteins did not show considerable change.
