Abstract
Seafood is highly perishable after being caught, making effective preservation technology essential. A few studies have explored the mechanisms of near-freezing storage combined with high-voltage electric fields for seafood preservation. This study uses near-freezing storage at -1 °C in conjunction with three high-voltage electric fields (5 kV/m, 8 kV/m, and 16 kV/m) to store large yellow croakers for 21 days and assesses their quality through sensory evaluation, pH values, malondialdehyde, total volatile basic nitrogen, and total viable counts. The results indicate that high-voltage electric fields effectively inhibit endogenous enzyme activity and microbial growth while reducing lipid oxidation in large yellow croakers. The preservation effect is optimal at an electric field strength of 16 kV/m, extending their shelf life by 9 days. These findings offer valuable theoretical and data-driven insights for applying near-freezing storage and electric field preservation technology in cross-regional fish transportation.
