Abstract

        Effect of calcium chloride (CaCl2) and egg white powder (EWP) on quality of marinated ground-fish from Indian mackerel (IMF) was studied. Firstly, CaCl2 at concentrations of 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8% (w/w fish) were added. It was found that with increasing the amount of CaCl2, the activity of Ca2+-ATPase, L*, a*, b*, whiteness and textural properties, were increased whereas pH and expressible moisture content were decreased. The IMF with 0.4% CaCl2 obtained the highest gel strength with the highest overall liking score (8.03 + 0.89). Secondly, the effect of EWP (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% (w/w fish)) addition with 0.4% CaCl2was investigated. It was found that, when amount of EWP increased the activity of protease, pH and expressible moisture content were decreased. While L*, a*, b*, and textural properties, were increased. In addition, adding 3% EWP with 0.4% CaCl2 rendered the IMF with the highest gel strength, as well as the highest overall liking score at moderately level (7.17 + 1.51). Keywords :  Indian mackerel, calcium chloride, egg white powder, marinated ground-fish
