Preduction of Drained Weight of Canned Prawn Under laboratory Condition

Abstract

A workable formula for calculating the drained weight of canned prawn under laboratorycondition of blanching and processing has been worked out with two variables,namely, concentration of blanching brine and time of blanching. The accuracyof the results is within± 2.0 %. The suggested formula is applicable only underspecified conditions of canning.
