Effect of stable chlorine dioxide on preservation of tilapia fish-ball

The effects of stable chlorine dioxide on the preservation of tilapia fish-ball were researched by using sensory evaluation ( whiteness, hardness and elasticity) , total bacterial counts, p H, TVB-N and TBAvalue under cold storage conditions ( 4 ± 1) ℃.The results indicated that stable chlorine dioxide had good sterilization and preservation effects.It could inhibit microbial growth, delay oxidation of protein and fat and extend the shelf life 6~10 d of tilapia fish-ball.The preservation effects of adding 50 mg/L stable chlorine dioxide were significantly.
