Preparation of Functional Fish Protein Concentrate from Underutilized Fish, Pink Perch (Nemipterus japonicus)

The technology, that helps in better utilization and storage of fish, is found in the production offish protein concentrates (FPC). This technology consists of removing water from fish meat and concentrating the protein. These products lack functional properties including rehydration ability, which makes it difficult to process them with other foods. Although a method for production of FPC has been developed, it has not yet been possible to market it successfully.
