The present study was carried out to evaluate changes in biochemical, sensory and functional characteristics of whole and gutted pink perch (Nemipterus japonicus) during ice storage. Samples were drawn daily till the fish was organoleptically unacceptable. Organoleptic scores of ice stored pink perch (N. japonicus) decreased gradually on 13 and 15 days respectively and it was acceptable. On 15 and 19 days there was ammonical odour and it was fully spoiled on 17th and 21th day of ice storage. | Comparative study on functional characteristics of whole and gutted pink perch (Nemipterus japonicus) during ice storage
