Abstract Black clam (Villorita cyprinoides) (Gray, 1825), a
nutrient rich bivalve was used for preparing two
products viz., clam cutlet and clam bonda, and
packaged in two different packaging materials, 200
gauge low density polyethylene and 12 μ polyester/
200 gauge polyethylene laminate. The biochemical
and microbiological parameters of the products
were analyzed to study its storage stability in chilled
condition. Parameters like pH, color (L*, a*, b*), total
volatile base nitrogen (TVBN), thiobarbituric acid
(TBA), peroxide value (PV) and free fatty acid (FFA)
were within permissible limit during the period of
observation. The aerobic plate count, after 24 days
of storage of the products were in the range of 6.81
to 7.41 log10 cfu g-1
and 6.3 to 7 log10 cfu g-1
for LDPE
and PES/PE respectively. Escherichia coli and Enterobacteriaceae
were absent throughout the storage
period. The study showed that biochemical and
microbiological parameters were greater for the
products packed in LDPE compared to PES/PE
laminate, indicating that the laminate film was more
efficient in preserving the quality of the products
when compared to monolayer films.
