The water solubility of films from fish muscle
proteins is much influenced by many factors such as the fish
species, muscle washing treatments, solubilizing pH, drying temperature,
and plasticizer composition. The water vapor permeability
of the control film at the beginning of storage was
5.21 1013 kgmm2 s1 Pa1. This valuewas of the same order as
those obtained for films from proteins such as fish muscle or gelatin
from various origin (1.2e6.1 1013 kg m/m2 s Pa)
