COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF FISH PROTEIN CONCENTRATE AND FUNCTIONAL FISH PROTEIN CONCENTRATE FROM CAT FISH.

Abstract

Fish protein concentrate and functional fish protein concentrate
samples were prepared from eviscerated meat of cat fish
(Tachysurus jella Day). Functional fish protein concentrate is
found to be lighter, less gritty and rehydrates more rapidly
than fish protein concentrate. Functional FPC is seen to have
higher PER and biscuits containing it at levels of 5 and 7
percent are less hard compared to FPC.
