Popis: | The effect of different thawing methods—running water, microwave, slack water (25°C), air (25°C), and refrigerator (4°C)—and multiple freeze-thaw cycles (0, 1, 3, and 5) on the quality of common carp were investigated. Microwave thawing showed the lowest score for sensory assessment and the highest cooking loss (p < 0.05), while 4°C refrigerator thawing showed less thawing loss and cooking loss but required the longest thawing time. Ca2+-ATPase activity and sulfhydryl content of air thawing were lower (p < 0.05), while no significant differences were observed among other thawing methods. Water loss and the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value increased (p < 0.05) when freeze-thaw cycles increased. The sensory scores and hardness decreased significantly when the freeze-thaw cycles increased (p < 0.05). A significant decrease (p < 0.05) was observed in salt-extractable protein content after five freeze-thaw cycles. Different thawing methods affected the quality of common carp. Frozen common... |
