All Technologies

The current technology deals with the development and optimization of a product called Intermediate Moisture Shrimp conceptualized on a similar product called ‘Dried Shrimp or Sode (Marathi)’ which is predominantly used as a regular seafood preparation during rainy or lean season in the western India especially in Maharashtra & Goa. The developed product has a better over-all quality & can be stored at ambient temperature for 4 months. The shelf life of this product can be further extended to another 2 months by radiation processing (5 kGy) at ambient temperature. Radiation processing of food is a well-known technology based on physical energy where no chemical preservatives are involved and does not increase the temperature of the food. It has been approved by various international and national organizations to ensure 'Food Security & Safety'
