Values are mean±SD (n=3).
Means during storage period for 9 days with different letters within the same row are significantly different by Duncan’s multiple range (p<0.05).
Not significant.
Means at storage temperature (−20°C, 0°C, 4°C) with different capital superscripts (A-C) in each columm are significantly different at p<0.05.
