“…However, MyD88 activity in Chinese mitten crab has not been reported. The Chinese mitten crab E. sinensis (Henri Milne Edwards 1854) is one of the most important crustacean species that is widely cultivated in Southeast Asia (Ying et al, 2006). Understanding the innate immunity of crab may provide a basis for development of better strategies for disease management in crab culture.…”

“…This may be related to the differences of fatty acid composition between ovary and testis, suggesting that C20: 5n-3 and C22:6n-3 may play important role in ovary development. Ying et al (2007) reported that the contents of C20:5 and C22:6 increased when the ovary was mature and the female began to spawn, which suggested that C20:5 and C22:6 were important for embryo development [17].…”

Freeze drying is reported to be the best method of dehydration. Live fresh Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis) were freeze dried. The moisture content, rehydration ratio, and fatty acid composition of freeze-dried crabs were analysed. The applicability of using freeze drying to process high-value E. sinensis, so as to prolong the time duration of their storage and marketing, were discussed. After lyophilisation, the average moisture content was 6%. The physical properties (shape, size, and colour) of the musculature and viscera were maintained well during freeze drying. The rehydration ratio was 2.15 when rehydrated for 30 min at room temperature. The levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, were higher in female freeze-dried crabs than in male crabs. After full rehydration, the fatty acid composition of freeze-dried crabs showed no significant differences to that of frozen crabs after thawing. In conclusion, freeze drying can well preserve the physical properties of the edible parts and fatty acid composition of the viscera in high-value E. sinensis. Rehydration has no destruction of the nutritional value regarding to the fatty acid composition. Therefore, freeze drying is a suitable technique for the processing of high-value E. sinensis.

“…The values of EPA (5.73%) and DHA (5.28%) were lower for Pacific white shrimp. In shrimp, the ability to synthesize DHA and EPA is limited, therefore, the contribution of these constituents comes from diet (Ying, Yang, & Zhang, 2006). The studies carried out in Brazil have shown that the meat of fish from captivity has lower levels of omega-3 in relation to the fish obtained by extractivism (Carbonera et al, 2014).…”

ABSTRACT. The objective of this study was to evaluate the centesimal composition, fatty acid profile and the nutritional quality index of four seafood species: pink shrimp (Penaeus brasiliensis), Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), mussel (Perna perna) and octopus (Octopus vulgaris), that were collected in Santa Catarina, Brazil. The nutritional quality of the lipid fraction was evaluated by the index of thrombogenicity (IT), index of atherogenicity (IA) and the hypocholesterolaemic fatty acids-to-hypercholesterolaemic fatty acids ratio (h/H). All the studied species presented a high protein content (12.88−21.61%) and a low amount of total lipid (0.26−4.07%). The pink shrimp had the most protein and octopus contained the least total lipid. Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid were detected in all samples, presenting the highest values in mussel (204.62 and 123.57 mg 100 g -1 , respectively). The analysed species presented low IT and IA values and an h/H ratio around 2 or higher, and therefore, they are considered potentially healthy foods. Moreover, the shrimp species can be classified as a source of omega-3s, while the mussels can be categorised as having a high content in these polyunsaturated fatty acids.Keywords: polyunsaturated fatty acids; omega-3; omega-6; eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).Composição centesimal, perfil de ácidos graxos e índices de qualidade nutricional de quatro espécies de frutos do mar da região sul do Brasil RESUMO. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a composição centesimal, perfil de ácidos graxos e índices de qualidade nutricional de quatro espécies: camarão rosa (Penaeus brasiliensis), camarão branco do pacífico (Litopenaeus vannamei), mexilhão (Perna perna) e polvo (Octopus vulgaris), coletados em Santa Catarina, Brasil. A qualidade nutricional da fração lipídica foi determinada pelos índices de trombogenicidade (IT), aterogenicidade (IA) e a relação entre ácidos graxos hipocolesterolêmicos (h): hipercolesterolêmico (H) h/H. Os resultados demonstraram que as espécies estudadas apresentam alto teor de proteína (12,88 a 21,61%) e baixo teor de lipídios (0,26 a 4,07%), sendo o camarão rosa o alimento mais proteico e o polvo com menor teor de lipídios totais. Em relação aos ácidos graxos, foram detectados os ácidos eicosapentaenoico (EPA) e docosahexaenóico (DHA), em todas as amostras, sendo o mexilhão Perna perna, a espécie que apresentou maiores valores (204,62 e 123,57 mg 100 g -1 , respectivamente). Desta forma, as espécies analisadas demostraram-se como alimentos potencialmente saudáveis, pelos baixos valores de IA e IT e valores próximos ou superior a 2 do hH. As espécies de camarão podem ser classificadas como fonte de ômega-3, enquanto que o mexilhão pode ser classificado como alto teor desse constituinte.
