Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The effect of frozen storage at a commercial temperature (−30°C) on the nutritional characteristics of the blue swimming crab Portunus segnis for a period of 120 days was investigated. Lipid and protein oxidation was investigated by analyses of peroxide value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, free fatty acids, and advanced oxidation protein products. Results showed significant lipid deterioration with extended storage time and changes in fatty acids composition and lipid classes. From a nutritional standpoint, it would be preferable for human consumption to eat frozen crabs for no more than 30 days as they retain a higher nutritional value.
