This thesis examined the economics of producing high value bio-ingredients such as chitin and carotenoprotein from shrimp processing waste in Newfoundland. The shrimp waste in the province was estimated to be at least 37000 tons annually. A survey of shrimp processing plants in the province revealed that the waste generated was relatively pure with little or no foreign material. The economic engineering approach was employed to estimate the production cost of chitin and carotenoprotein at ...

A common method used by consumers to determine if shrimp are thoroughly cooked when boiling, is to wait until the shrimp float to the top of the water and are pink in color. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the current floating and color cooking method is adequate to ensure the elimination of Listeria and Salmonella species. Furthermore, to determine if processing and storage methods reduce the effectiveness of this method. Shrimp samples were submerged into bacterial suspensio...

Pacific shrimp (Pandalus jordani) was washed repeatedly and the eluted bacteria were enumerated and identified. Selected isolates were tested for their adhesive properties. Washing reduced the microbial load by 3.84 to 42.04%. The bacteria which most resisted wash-off were Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas spp. The easiest to wash off was Flavobacterium spp. In higher-count samples, Moraxella and/or Lactobacillus spp. washed off readily, but they still constituted large proportions of the residual ...

The life cycle of Callianassa californiensis Dana, 1854, was studied in the tidal estuary, Yaquina Bay, Oregon. At this latitude it is largely restricted to intertidal sandy mudflats under predominately marine influence. Salinity and temperature appear to determine its distribution to a greater extent than does sediment type. Vertical movement within the sediment is related to the tides on a day to day basis and to temperature on a seasonal basis. Large-scale breeding generally begins in the spr...

The goal of these experiments was to ensile combinations of shrimp or crab waste with perennial ryegrass straw and analyze it for silage quality and ruminal degradability. The rapid deterioration of seafood wastes required initial preservation prior to ensiling to minimize odor production and protein breakdown. Eight experiments were conducted to preserve, ensile and test the ruminal degradability of shrimp and crab waste. The first three experiments attempted to preserve crab waste with the add...

Aquaculture has grown rapidly as the worlds wild-caught fisheries approach their sustainable limits. Feed conversion in aquaculture is more efficient than in terrestrial animals. Thus with a growing world population, seafood produced through aquaculture can provide a high quality source of protein. Aquaculture systems rely on high stocking densities and commercial feeds to increase production and profitability, which increase animal stress and susceptibility to disease. Veterinary drugs are comm...

The muscle of shellfish, in particular shrimp, is characterized by high amounts of free amino acids especially glycine as well as proline, serine and alanine which all contribute to the overall pleasant and desirable flavour perceived. The two major proteolytic enzymes, chymotrypsin and trypsin, were used at different ratios (E/S, 0.0-0.3%), temperatures (25$ sp circ$C-45$ sp circ$C) and time of hydrolysis (1-3h) for frozen and fresh shrimp. These conditions were optimized in order to generate a...

The sea anemone Bartholomea annulata, is an ecologically important member of Caribbean coral reefs. This anemone serves as symbiotic host to crustacean associates, some of which may control parasite loads by "cleaning" reef fishes. Associates may gain protection from predation by dwelling with anemones. B. annulata was the most abundant anemone documented on three reefs, with 52% host to crustacean symbionts. Of those occupied by multi-species groups, 92% included Alpheus armatus shrimp. A. arma...

Pasteurization radiation offers a new means of extending the refrigerated storage life of foods. This procedure avoids many of the undesirable changes which result when sterilization radiation is used and still eliminates most of the spoilage organisms. Shrimp was treated with 5 ppm chlortetracycline and subjected to pasteurization levels of gamma radiation and stored at 38°F. The levels of irradiation used were 0.5 and 0.75 megarad. These levels were based on the flavor threshold of irradiation...

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972 prohibits the discharge of seafood processing solid wastes into navigable waters after July 1, 1977. Oregon shrimp and crab processors must use other methods of disposal for the 15 to 30 million pounds of solid waste generated annually. The application of shrimp and crab wastes to nearby agricultural land can consume the wastes generated at major processing ports. As they came from the processing plant, shrimp and crab solid wastes conta...
