Frozen shrimp is one type of fishery product. Fishery products are a type of food that is susceptible to damage due to pathogenic microbial contamination. Virus is a type of pathogen that can attack fishery commodities including shrimp. One type of virus that attacts shrimp namely Taura Syndrome Virus (TSV). This study aims to detect Taura Syndrome Virus in frozen white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon) products. The research was carried out in December 2019 - January 2020 at the Fish Quarantine Center, Quality Control and Safety of Fishery Products in Surabaya II. Materials used in this study consist of two types of frozen shrimp, namely 5 samples of tiger prawn and 2 samples of white shrimp. Virus testing samples were detected molecularly using the conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method which consisted of an extraction stage using a Silica Extraction Kit, an amplification stage, electrophoresis and result visualization. This research was observative, then the data obtained were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that all shrimp samples consisting of white shrimp dan tiger prawn were negative of the Taura Syndrome Virus (TSV).
Shrimp is one type of fishery commodity that can be processed into fishery products. Fishery products are included in the type of food that is susceptible to pathogenic microbial contamination. One type of pathogen that can contaminate the product the main fishery in shrimp is the White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV). The purpose of this study is to determine the technique of checking the WSSV virus on frozen products of white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and tiger prawns (Penaeus monodon). Research carried out in December 2019 – January 2020 at the Fish Quarantine, Quality Control and Safety of Fishery Products Surabaya II. The material used in the research is 3 samples of frozen tiger prawn product and 1 sample of frozen white shrimp product. Sample extracted using the Silica Extraction Kit and detected molecularly using the method conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This research is observational, then the data obtained were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that all samples shrimp negative for WSSV virus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
