The traditional and modernised processing of Mish were assessed by comparing samples from modernised process with the traditional process: in each case, six batches were evaluated, with six samples per batch. The results indicated highly significant (P 0.001) differences in protein, ash and fat content, the viscosity and all microbiological parameters tested between the traditional and modern produced Mish. However, the storage period showed significant variations only for the microbiological parameters, as some contaminants were found for samples processed by the traditional procedure. Hence, the study recommended that Mish processing should be carried out following the modernised procedure to ensure better hygienic quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
