The chapter highlights the topics on inspection, its importance and types, and the details of final inspection procedures, viz., inspection of cold storage temperature; selection of MC from cold storage; inspection of product temperature; inspection of size, count, color, grade, weights (gross weight/frozen weight/deglaze weight/defrost weight/net weight and individual weight of shrimp), uniformity ratio, organoleptic characteristics, and defects; cooking test; and inspection of final packaging, labeling, and reporting. The chapter also highlights the process of inspection of internal environment, inspection of sanitation standard, as well as rejection policy of the products. Different types of calculation, viz., formula of carton selection, calculation of pieces of frozen shrimps per pound, pieces of deglaze shrimps per pound, etc., are also included in this chapter.
