Abstract Results of studies of chemical, bacteriological and organoleptic quality of cured fish
collected from four major curing centres along the Tamilnadu coast are reported. Only
32.43% of the samples had moisture level below 35%, 0.9% had salt 25% and above.
None of the samples showed acid insoluble ash below 1.5% . The main defects
were unhygienic processing, inadequate salting, use of poor quality salt and incomplete
drying. Recommendations for improvement of quality are given.
