Minced meats of Baltic cod (G&us morhua) with added krill (Euphausia superba D.), krill precipitate, or bream (Abrumis brumu) were freeze-textured or frozen conventionally. Lipid composition and oxidation were analyzed after 6-8 mo storage at -20°C. Analyses included peroxide value, fluorescence, lipid classes (thin-layer chromatography), and fatty acid composition (gas chromatography). Peroxide value was '4-9 times lower in freeze-textured meat minces than in conventionally frozen samples. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) was higher, by 22% in bream minces to 80% in cod minces without additives, in all freeze-textured minces than in conventionally frozen samples. Texturization could reduce lipid oxidation in minced fish during frozen storage.
