Abstract:

Hurdle technology is a combination of multiple techniques which is intended to maximize the storage life of foods
by inhibiting fat oxidation and the growth of harmful microorganisms through multiple mechanisms during food processing
and storage. The purpose of this article is to review the latest advances in the application of hurdle technology as well as new
antibacterial packaging and cold sterilization for the processing and storage of aquatic products. Moreover, future trends in
the development and application of hurdle technology in aquatic products are also proposed.

Key words: hurdle technology, antibacterial packing, cold sterilization, aquatic product
