Impact of S. aromaticum and C. cassia Incorporated Edible Films on Shelf Life of Seer Fish ( Scomberomorus guttatus ) Stored at Different Temperature Conditions

摘要

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Syzygium aromaticum and Cinnamomum cassia fused edible film on the shelf life of seer fish meat. Physical, chemical and microbial parameters of edible film wrapped seer fish meat was analyzed for estimation of its shelf life. Peroxide value and total volatile base nitrogen analysis of edible film wrapped seer fish meat showed controlled chemical degradation of seer fish meat. Microbial analysis was used as a scale for estimation of shelf life. Shelf life of edible film wrapped seer fish meat was estimated as 20 days at storage temperature of 10C and 30 days at storage temperature of 4C. Sensory evaluation of edible film wrapped seer fish meat showed acceptable sensory scores till 20th day of storage in both trained and untrained panel scoring.
