The invention provides a method for removal of antibiotic residues from food products by irradiating the food product with a dose of ionizing gamma radiation for an effective duration of time. The food product undergoing irradiation by ionizing gamma radiation is selected from a group of dairy and poultry products and its likes thereof.

The present invention relates to a method and a device for ship-borne freezing of marine products after treated by highly activated water and nondestructive sensing of ice crystals. Through treating the seawater with atmospheric plasma in a certain atmosphere and introducing the tail gas from plasma reactor into the seawater in tail gas collecting device, the highly activated water is obtained. After cooling by the ship-borne refrigeration system, the cooled highly activated water can be used to cool and sterilize the captured marine products timely. During the following freezing processes, both the ultra-high frequency (UHF) electromagnetic field system and pulsed ultrasonic monitoring system are applied simultaneously, which can not only effectively reduce the size of ice crystals and the juice loss of the frozen products during thawing, but also inhibits the thermal effect of electromagnetic field.

A method for manufacturing a processed food is provided, which includes steps of (a) processing raw materials classified per characteristics into a food, (b) after the step (a), weighing aged processed food by a predetermined weight, and inner packaging the weighed processed food with a laminated transparent film in which a polypropylene film, nylon and CPR are laminated together; (c) after the step (b), sterilizing the processed food at a low temperature and at high a temperature and a high pressure, and cooling the sterilized processed food at a predetermined temperature or lower, and (d) after the step (c), performing a detection test for metallic components in the sterilized and cooled processed food and then outer packaging the same.

A method for preparing a fish product. In the method, a slaughtered fish is filleted in pre-rigor state, skin is removed from the fillet in pre-rigor state, the skinless fillet is arranged in a pre-salting process in pre-rigor state and allowed to remain there for the pre-salting period, the fillet is removed from the pre-salting process, the fillet is arranged in its transport package, in which it is subjected to a second salting process, and the fillet is allowed to remain in the transport package for at least one day.
