520 3 _aFreezing ~ considered as an excellent process for preserving the quality of fish for longer periods. But freezing may affect various flesh components, especially the proteins. Sarcoplasmic proteins play a major role in species identification of fish and fishery products. While myofibrillar proteins play a major role in the jellying properties of surimi and surimi based products. The changes to these groups of proteins due to freezing and frozen storage have received much attention. Four species Megalaspis cordyla, Labeo rohita, Penaeus indicus and Parapenaeopsis styli/era were used for the frozen storage study. Samples were stored for 90 days at -18°C and samples were collected at 15 day. intervals and Salt Soluble Nitrogen (SSN), Water Soluble Nitrogen (WSN) and Non-Protein Nitrogen (NPN) content were determined. Electrophoretic pattern of both Salt Soluble Proteins (SSP) and Water Soluble Proteins (WSP) of frozen stored sample were compared with that of the fresh sample. SSN, WSN and NPN content showed significant decrease during 90 days frozen storage period. However changes in the WSN content of P.stylifera showed no significant difference. Electrophoretic pattern of WSP remained almost the same throughout the frozen storage period with some minor bands becoming less intense with storage period. Electrophoretic pattern of SSP showed a major change in the myosin. Heavy chain which became narrower and less intense with the concomitant appearance of high molecular weight protein aggregate at the top of the gel.
