The development of new formulation is necessary to improve the technological quality of minced, and can be achieved through the use of preservative ingredients. The aim of

Minced was prepared from tilapia with addition of different antioxidants, and its composition and freshness characteristics (TVB-N and TBARS) were evaluated. It was observed that the non-washed minced presented lower moisture but higher levels of proteins, lipids and ash. After the freshness analysis, the washed minced TVB-N showed lower values than non-washed, and the samples with antioxidants presented higher stability during storage. The TBARS analysis of cooked samples showed a lower stability and it was verified that the storage time tends to increase the oxidation. It was concluded that both washing and addition of antioxidants were able to enhance stability against minced storage under freezing.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 200%;">&nbsp;</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 200%;">DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.14685/rebrapa.v3i1.85</p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span>
