ABSTRACT

Two edible coatings (gelatin coating and ginger essential oil-gelatin coating) were prepared to maintain the flavor quality of fish fillets at two storage temperatures (4 °C and 25 °C). The effects of coating on fish fillets were evaluated by detecting the physical properties, microstructure, microbial properties, volatile flavor and taste flavor of fish. In the same coating method, fish fillets stored at 4 °C showed better effect than that at 25 °C on maintain water content, color and texture, however, fish fillets stored at 25 °C were closer to fresh fish in volatile flavor and taste flavor than that at 4 °C; whatever the storage temperature, coating could slow down the growth of fish microorganisms, maintain water content, color, texture, volatile flavor and taste flavor of fish fillets; GGC exhibited better effect on maintain flavor quality than GC.
