Resumo

Abstract Fresh cod muscle treated with formaldehyde at concentrations approximating to those attained during frozen storage, is rendered partially inextractable in solutions of sodium dodecyl sulphate. This finding throws doubt on the role of formaldehyde as a methylene crosslinking agent acting during frozen storage of cod and similar species.
