Abstract The storage characteristics of surimi froth fresh water major carp rohu
(Larbeo rohita) was studied at -35°C by following the changes in water-soluble
sarcoplasmic proteins and myofibrillar proteins . Ca" ATPase activity was
taken as an index for studying the myosin denaturation . Washing to prepare
surimi resulted in the removal of more than 53% of water-soluble proteins .
Besides, about 13% loss in myofibrillar protein was also noticed . 38% of the
water soluble protein remaining the meat became inextractable at the end of
six months of storage while 20% of the remaining myofibrillar protein was
denatured and remained inextractable . The ATPase activity of the surimi
decreased by 20% during the storage period . Changes in the gel strength and
compressibility of the gel were also monitored during frozen storage
