Abstract

CulturedMacrobrachium rosenbergii (Scampi; 30-40 g) in headless shell-on
form was stored in ice (Prawn:ice=l:2) in a plywood box insulated with 2 em
thick expanded polystyrene and subjected to detailed examination of quality
by chemical, microbiological and organoleptic evaluation at regular intervals
to assess the storage life. The prime quality life of prawns in ice was found to
be 8 days followed by a phase of lowered quality, but still acceptable till the
end of 13 days.
