Industrial relevance
High pressure processing is a non thermal processing method which has wide applications in food industry. Fish is a highly perishable commodity and it has a limited shelf life in chill conditions. High pressure treatment has been found to effectively extend the shelf life of various products. In this study, HPP has been effectively demonstrated for enhancing the storage period of tuna at low temperature. Such studies can be commercially applied by fish processing industries to preserve the valuable catch and can enhance the marketing potential of tuna.
