Quantification and mapping of tissue damage from freezing in cod by magnetic resonance imaging
Freezing of fish is an important processing method that can extend the shelf life of the product but can also lead to significant damage to the tissue if performed incorrectly. In order to thoroughly evaluate different freezing protocols, a method to characterize the extent and distribution of damag...
