the present work was carried out to study the effect of vacuum packaging and pomegranate peel extract (pe) treatments on the quality of pacific white shrimp (peneous vannamei) during refrigerated storage. changes in ph, thiobarbituric acid (tba), total volatile base nitrogen (tvb-n), trimethylamine (tma), aerobic plate counts, psychrophilic, lactic acid bacteria and enterobacteriaceae counts, m...

Vibrio harveyi is a Gram-negative bacterium associated with vibriosis in penaeid shrimp. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a V. harveyi strain isolated from Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) during a vibriosis outbreak. The availability of this genome will aid future studies of vibriosis in shrimp aquaculture.

Melanosis is a major problem associated with the quality loss of Pacific white shrimp. This is mediated by polyphenoloxidase (PPO), in which biochemical and molecular properties can be varied with species, molting period, etc. The better understanding of PPO characteristics should pave a way for lowering melanosis, thereby extending the shelf life of Pacific white shrimp during handling and sto...

 The present study was carried out in order to establish an economical effective diet for the pacific white shrimp in the southern part conditions of Iran. Three dietary energy levels (E1=262, E2=312, E3=362 Kcal 100 g-1 diet) and 6 ratios of fish meal (FM): soybean meal (SBM) [(P1= 100% FM+ 0% SBM), (P2= 80% FM+ 20% SBM),(P3= 60% FM+ 40% SBM), (P4= 40% FM+ 60% SBM), (P5= 20% FM+ 80% SBM),(P6= ...

Polyphenoloxidase (PPO), protease activities, melanosis and exudate loss of pre-cooked Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) subjected to multiple freeze-thaw cycles (1, 3 and 5 cycles) using different thawing methods were studied. PPO and protease activities increased as freeze-thaw cycles increased (p < 0.05). Thawing using running tap water resulted in the higher increases in both PPO ...

Effect of different feeding levels on water quality, growth performance, survival rate and body composition of Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei post larvae were studied in zero water exchange system. Shrimp post larvae with mean weight of 74.46± 6.17 mg were fed for 32 days in 300L fiberglass tanks containing 130L water at density of 1 post larvae L-1. There were five treatments includ...

The present work was carried out to study the effect of vacuum packaging and pomegranate peel extract (PE) treatments on the quality of pacific white shrimp (Peneous vannamei) during refrigerated storage. Changes in pH, thiobarbituric acid (TBA), total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), trimethylamine (TMA), aerobic plate counts, psychrophilic, lactic acid bacteria and enterobacteriaceae counts, m...

The effect of five isonitrogenous diets (36.6% protein), formulated by replacing 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% of fish meal (FM) with rice protein concentrate (RPC), was investigated on the growth and tail-muscle fatty acid (FA) quality of juvenile Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. The feeds were fed to shrimp (initial weight of 6.99 ± 0.08 g) five times daily to apparent satiation for 60 d...
