    Mechanisms of Quality Preservation in Golden Pomfret Fish Balls Treated with Ultra-High Pressure During Freeze–Thaw Cycles

    by Jiawen Liu, Xinyao Zeng, Jiaqi Zhao, Yunfeng Chi, Lin Xiu, Mingzhu Zheng, Huimin Liu

    The rising demand for convenient, nutritious foods necessitates improved freeze–thaw (F-T) stability in frozen fish balls; however, traditional thermal processing fails to prevent moisture loss, textural degradation, and oxidation. Therefore, this study systematically investigated the effect of ultra-high pressure (UHP) treatment on the quality of golden pomfret fish balls (Trachinotus ovatus) using two-step heating as a control during the F-T cycles. The results showed that compared to two-step heating, UHP significantly reduced the thawing loss (0.68 times) and centrifugal water loss (2.43 times) by enhancing the water-binding capacity (15–20%) and forming denser gel networks. Microstructural analysis revealed that UHP resulted in a more compact internal structure, reduced porosity, altered ice-crystal geometry, and a slower recrystallization rate of the fish balls. Furthermore, UHP effectively reduced protein oxidation (34.53% lower carbonyl increase) and lipid peroxidation (15.6% lower TBARS value) after five F-T cycles compared to the control. Correlation analysis confirmed the dual role of UHP in the regulation of oxidative and structural stability. These findings provide a new technological approach for processing and storing fish balls.
