Results showed nice protein content (85%), low water content (4%), and 1.18% of residual lipids in prepared FPC. Amino acid profile was similar to casein and egg. Protein digestibility and amino acid index were higher than casein. Protein efficiency ratio was 2.83. No content of lysinoalanine was detected in prepared FPC. FPC samples showed very nice functional properties, high emulsifying and hydration capacities. Equilibrium moisture content ranged from 1.25% at 5% RH (relative humidity) to about 19% at 85% RH. After 10 months of storage at room temperature (vacuum packing with nitrogen) only a slight change in specific activity of actomyosin Ca^<+2>-ATPase was detected and total activity expresed as actomysin as total Ca^<+2>-ATPase activity was preserved in 26.25%. Thiobarbituric acid number (TBA N) was increased during storage.}, pages = {357--368}, title = {Low Temperature Alcohol Treatment of Oily Fish (Sardine) in View to Produce Fish Protein Concentrate (FPC) like Product}, volume = {30}, year = {1981} }
