Abstract
To determine the shelf-life of low salted Myungran-jeot (low salted and fermented Alaska pollack roe), various chemical, microbiological and sensory analyses were carried out with Myungran-jeot stored at 10 days. The lactic acid content was slowly increased in the early stage of storage but then was rapidly increased with lengthening storage period, while pH was decreased during storage. The $NH_2-N$ content was steady at 10 days and peaked at 17 days. The production of VBN was increased to over $30mg\%$ at 19 days. In microbiological tests, the viable cell count and halotolerant bacteria were $1.5\times10^3\;and\;5.5\times10^3CFU/g$, respectively, at the initial state, but they slowly increased to $10^7 CFU/g$ at 17 days. Yeast or fungi did not appear on the surface of Myungran-jeot. Sensory evaluation showed that the original torture of Myungran-jeot in the mouth was a very important indicator for acceptability. Sensory characters and acceptability of Myungran-jeot at 17 days were not significantly different from those of the initial state. From these results, the estimated shelf-life of Myungran-jeot whom sealed with aluminum coated paper, was about 18 days in this study.
