Abstract
ABSTRACTA quantitative measure of force to pull shell from meat was developed as an index of peelability for Pacific shrimp (Pandalus jordani). An average, normalized tensile strength measured with a spring force gage, correlated positively (r = 0.98) with weight of unremoved shell found with a prototype mechanical peeler. In an example application, the force index shows shell removal to be influenced by holding shrimp in different refrigerating media for varying lengths of time.
