Abstract: | Frozen storage characteristics and shelflife vary
considerably among species as well as within the species
(Powrie, 1973; Fennema. 1973). This can be attributed to the
variation in the composition of fish among various species.
In certain species like sardines and mackerel. wide seasonal
variation in chemical composition occur within the species.
These variations affect the quality and shelflife. The
nutritional level of water. spawning, method of catching,
struggling etc. are found to have profound influence on the
condition of the fresh fish.
Soon after death the deteriorative changes in fish start
due to autolysis and bacterial growth. The rate of these
changes depends mainly on temperature. The handling methods
have great influence on bacterial contamination. Thus the type

carried out on various factors affecting the quality of fish
as well as their effect on the physical. chemical and sensory
qualities of fish during frozen storage and the shelflife |
