“…ascorbic acid, sulfoxide,sodium pirosulfite as reductants, L‐cysteine and glutathione ascouplers of o ‐quinones, sodium chloride, EDTA, carbon monoxideand diethyldithiocarbamate as chelators of copper atoms existingin an active site of tyrosinase, cinnamic acid, p ‐coumaricacid, and pherulic acid as analogs of substrate, and kojic acid and4‐hexylresorcinol as inhibitors belonging to other categories of inhibition mechanism). Part of the compounds describedabove have been reported as inhibitors of shrimp melanosis through thefollowing mechanisms; reducing o ‐quinones to o ‐diphenolsor Cu 2+ to Cu + byascorbic acid and its derivatives; 19 interactingwith the formation of o ‐quinone products by cysteine andbisulfite; 20 or decreasingthe oxygen uptake in the reaction by kojic acid 10 . Asmentioned above, ascorbic acid, kojic acid and bisulfite were reportedto inhibit mushroom tyrosinase activity and also PPO activity ofshrimp.…”

The inhibitory effect of 70% acetone extract of enokitakemushroom Flammulina velutipes on the mealnosis of shrimp Trachypenaeuscurvirostris was investigated. The acetone extract effectivelyprevented the mushroom tyrosinase activity as well as melanosisof American crayfish Procambarus clarkii hemolymph. Wheneach of two fractions of the acetone extract, which were unadsorbedon both of Dowex 50W X8 and/or DEAE‐TOYOPERAL 650 columns,was mixed with hemolymph of the American crayfish, the melanosisthat usually occurs in the heparinized hemolymph was effectivelyprevented. Immersing shrimp in the acetone extract of enokitakemushroom delayed the color darkening usually found in the post‐mortemshrimp. These observations suggested that enokitake mushroom containedcertain compounds that inhibit the formation of melanin due to thecatalytic oxidation of polyphenol oxidase, as well as mushroom tyrosinaseactivity.

“…Sulphites are known to inhibit both enzymatic and nonenzymatic browning reactions. Bisulphite was reported to inhibit melanosis by two mechanisms: by reacting with intermediate quinones in the melanosis reaction that forms sulfoquinones and by irreversibly reacting with PO, causing complete inactivation (Ferrer, Otwell, & Marshall, 1989). However, HR forms an inactive complex with PO that is incapable of catalysing melanosis formation (Guerrero-Beltran, Swanson, & Barbosa-Canovas, 2005).…”

“…Bisulfite has been known to inhibit melanosis by 2 mechanisms: by reacting with intermediate quinones in the melanosis reaction that forms sulfoquinones, and by irreversibly reacting with PPO, causing complete inactivation (Ferrer, Otwell, & Marshall, 1989). Meanwhile, HR forms an inactive complex with PPO that is incapable of catalyzing melanosis formation (Guererro-Beltran, Swanson, & Barbosa-Cánovas, 2005).…”
