The determination of formalin was carried out by qualitative and quantitative methods using the Schiff reagent. All the samples are appropriate with SNI standard in salt content ranged from 7,08-8,49% and water content ranged from 36,66 – 39,04%. The level of panelists acceptance for appearance score ranged from 6,70–7,06 (whole, clean, slight dullness), the odor score ranged from 6,26 – 6,93 (neutral, slight odor additive - slight natural odor, slight odor additive), and the texture score ranged from 6,48 – 7,36 (solid, some loss of elasticity-very firm, some loss of elasticity). All the samples are contained formalin ranged from 0,64-0,83 ppm. The total plate count (TPC) of the samples was found ranged from 2,1 x 107 - 7,0 x 107 Cfu/g.
