Effect of Amidated Low Methoxyl Pectin on the Mechanical Properties and Colour Attributes of Fish Mince

Pectins have been unsuccessfully applied to improve functionality of meat and fish products. Effect of amidated low methoxyl pectin (ALM pectin) levels on functionality of Mexican flounder (Cyclopsetta chittendenii) mince was studied. Changes in the firmness and work of extrusion of pastes, texture...

Effect of amidated low methoxyl pectin (ALM pectin) levels on functionality of Mexican flounder (Cyclopsetta chittendenii) mince was studied. Changes in the firmness and work of extrusion of pastes, texture profile analysis (TPA) of gels, and colour parameters were determined. ALM pectin at 1 % decreased firmness and work of extrusion of fish pastes but increased hardness, chewiness and cohesiveness of the gels (P<0.05). The addition of ALM pectin increased slightly the whiteness and yellowness of mince gels. Chrome parameter indicated that gels remained in the grayish achromatic region. Therefore ALM pectin at 1 % could be employed to modify the textural properties of fish mince.http://hrcak.srce.hr/file/163968amidated low methoxyl pectingelfishrestructured products
