Description

Indian mackerel in ice was gamma irradiated to 1.5 and 3.0 kGy using 60Co source. Washed meat from the treated fish was homogenised in cold water and the viscosity and solubility characteristics of the homogenates were measured with respect to protein concentration, pH and temperature. Irradiation did not cause significant alterations in viscosity and solubility characteristics of the proteins. (author)
