ABSTRACT
The effects of changes in the malondialdehyde (MDA) content on the quality of fish during the low-temperature storage period are unclear. Therefore, the effects of the MDA content on Coregonus peled quality and protein changes were investigated following storage under refrigeration (4 °C) and super chilling (-3 °C) for 15 days (d). The results showed that the MDA content continued to increase during storage and that the highest content was produced at 1.42 mg/kg during refrigeration. The fillet pH, drip loss, texture (hardness and elasticity), and myofibril fragmentation index deteriorated significantly during the storage period. Increased oxidation of the myofibrillar protein (MP) was observed in the 15 d storage period, and the MP carbonyl content was 1.19 times higher under refrigeration than in super chilling, while the protein α-helix structure decreased by 12.48% and 12.20% under refrigeration and super chilling, respectively. Electropherograms also showed that myosin degradation was particularly severe in the refrigeration storage period of 15 d. Overall, the MDA formed at the refrigeration and super chilling storage temperatures could promote structural changes in, and the oxidative degradation of, proteins to different degrees, leading to the deterioration of the fillet quality. This study provides a scientific basis for investigating the relationship between fish quality and changes in the MDA content during low-temperature storage.
