Description Not Available
The proximate analysis of the meat from edible
crabs of marine (Portunus pelagicus and Portunus
sanguinolentus) and brackish water (Scylla
serrata and Scylla olivacea) ecosystems indicated appreciable
levels of protein, fat, carbohydrate, fibre
and minerals in the fresh meat besides the essential
amino acids (Arg, Leu, Trp and Met) and polyunsaturated
fatty acids (C22:6, C20:5 and C20:4). High
myofibrillar protein (50-57 g/100g) and low stroma
protein (2 g/100g of total protein) make it a
nutritionally valuable food. Sodium, potassium,
calcium and phosphorous were present at significant
levels. Low toxic elements (arsenic, cadmium,
lead) indicated the absence of food safety concerns.
