Texture pro ct

For two-cycle compression, a CT3 texture analyzer (50 kg, Brookfield, USA) was used to measure the force-time curves as penetration profiles. The method for texture profile analysis was used as recommended in Brookfield's instruction manual. The texture analyzer was supplied with a load cell of 100 g and application software (Brookfield Texture PRO CT) [29 ]. Two successive compressions were carried out on each sample. The resulting force-time curves were developed for hardness, chewiness, gumminess, adhesiveness, and cohesiveness. The accessory used for all measurements was a TA11/1000 (25.4 mm diameter cylinder probe, stainless steel, 10 g) probe. Each sample was tested two times at the test and a return speed of 1 mm/sec and a target depth of 2 mm. Trigger load was 1.0 g, the pretest speed was 2 mm/sec, and the data rate was 10 points/sec. Upon two compression cycles, the probe was automatically returned to the initial starting point and the texture analyzer was reset for the next test. All analyses were conducted at ambient temperature. The force-time deformation curves during compression and decompression cycles were obtained each time. The same textural properties were measured for all prepared samples. All results were expressed in a report with values automatically calculated by the analyzer's software [30 (link), 31 (link)].

The TPA test determined the texturometric profile using a CT3 Texture Analyzer (Brookfield, USA) with TexturePro CT (Brookfield, USA) software. The sample dimensions were cylinder 66 mm × 33.86 mm, and the temperature of the sample was 8°C. The test was performed using the acrylic probe TA 3/100 and the following settings: distance 15 mm, contact load 0.1 N, and measurement speed 1 mm/s [23 (link)]. In fermented milk, texture was examined in a total of 90 samples (15 × 6 = 90).

The method of Goulas and Kontominas [14 (link)] was followed to determine the weight loss of the fish fillets.
The odor intensity of the processed HDPS fillet was determined at a different smoking time intervals. The 5g sample was taken from different experimental groups, kept in a 50 mL conical tube, and covered with parafilm. Upon closing the lid, the odor intensity was measured instrumentally (XP-329, New Cosmos Electric Co. Ltd., Osaka, Japan) [23 (link)].
According to Mohibbullah et al. [16 (link)] and Chen et al. [24 (link)], the color of the surface of each HDPS sample was assessed numerically with an instrument of CM-700d, Konica Minolta (Tokyo, Japan).
The smoked sample from each group was taken for texture analysis using a Brookfield Texture Analyzer (Massachusetts, USA) and equipped with a software system connecting to the computer (Texture PRO CT, Middleboro, MA, USA). Data processing and collection were followed by the study of Ganesan & Benjakul [25 (link)].
