Effect of gamma irradiation on microbial, physical and chemical parameters of postharvest Penaeus monodon F.

Response surface methodology to optimize the sterilization process of slightly acidic electrolyzed water for Chinese shrimp (Fenneropenaeus chinensis) and to investigate its effect on shrimp quality

“…The total number of colonies was determined with reference to the method described in a previous study with slight modifications ( Marasinghe et al, 2022 ). After SAEW treatment of shrimp, 10 g of shrimp meat was quickly taken with sterilized scissors in an ultra-clean bench and placed in a sterile homogenizing bag, 90 mL of sterile saline was added, and homogenized for 2 min using a tapping homogenizer (DH-11 L , LAWSON Scientific Technology Co., Ltd, Ningbo, China) to make a 10 -1 dilution suspension, and then a 10-fold series of diluted sample homogenates were prepared.…”
