Abstract Several consignments of cooked-peeled-frozen prawns exported from India were
rejected last year due to high total plate count (TPC) at 30"C . The specified temperature
of incubation for TPC in our country is 37 °C. Hence the effect of incubation
at 30 and 37°C on TPC was studied . It is seen that the count is higher on incubation
at 30`C . A method for production of cooked-peeled-frozen prawns conforming
to the specification for TPC at 30 °C is standardised and is reported . It consists
of recooking the cooked-peeled prawns followed by packing and freezing without
further contamination . The method minimises batch to batch or sample to sample variation in TPC.
