Abstract

Changes in the major protein nitrogen fractions viz; sarcos
p1asmic, myofibrillar and stroma have been studied in two species of
prawns and in oil sardine held in ice storage. Myofibrillar proteins
were observed to get denatured at a rapid rate as determined by salt
extractability method. The sarcoplasmic proteins were not denatured
to any considerable extent. With sardine however, the extraction of
myofibrillar proteins was inhibited rather in the uniced condition
itself presumably owing to the presence of free fatty acids.
