They were randomly allocated to three treatment groups of non-salted, brine-salted and dry-salted fishes. Loss in weight was greatest during smoking and least during drying. The pH of the fresh tilapia as well as that of the smoke-dried one increased with the level of salt in the products. Methods of salting the fishes significantly (P<0.05) affected the levels of lipid oxidation. Smoking of the fishes exhibited greater antioxidant activity. In respect of the overall acceptability, brine-salted and smoked tilapia was rated higher than the other two samples. ER -
