Evaluation of the collagen integrity, organization, and intensity in the lyophilized Tilapia fish skin submitted to different irradiation dosages. Collagen integrity and organization were evaluated based on a 0–3 scale as described in the materials and methods. The collagen intensity was quantified using ImageJ. The results are expressed as a percentage of the total number of pixels and are normalized to the control-treated group. Differences were evaluated using one-way ANOVA. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.001; ***p < 0.0001.
