The possibility of keeping anchovies in brine at 0°C was studied. The storage life of anchovies under these conditions was about 85 hr. The concentration of brine seems to have little effect on the quality loss at the concentrations used in this study. An acceptability level for the raw material basedon sensory attributes cannot be established with any degree of accuracy since the latter deteriorate slowly. Thiobarbituric acid number increased slightly over the initial value throughout this study. Total volatile base increased abruptly after 85 hr of storage.
