Crayfish protein, present in the wastes from crayfish processing, has been investigated as an ingredient of surimi-like gel products, which may be regarded as a renewable, available, and low-cost raw material. The aim of ...

The effect of dietary protein level on spawning and egg quality was evaluated for female Cherax quadricarinatus. Diets containing four different levels of crude protein were evaluated (22, 27, 32, and 37%). After 100 days, ...

Linear dynamic viscoelastic properties have been used to evaluate the influence of heat processing on the microstructure of crayfish protein isolate (CFPI) in order to explore the potentials of crayfish in the production ...

Highly concentrated oil-in-water (o/w) emulsions stabilized by crayfish flour at high pH were characterized by means of linear dynamic viscoelasticity and droplet size distribution (DSD) analysis. Power consumption and ...

Crustaceans have to cyclically replace their rigid exoskeleton in order to grow. Most of them harden this skeleton by a calcification process. Some decapods (land crabs, lobsters and crayfish) elaborate calcium storage ...

The effect of eight diets with di¡erent protein-to-energy ratios (P-E ratio510, 11, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24mg kJ- 1) on reproduction of female redclaw cray-fish Cherax quadricarinatus was tested under laboratory conditions. ...

Gonadal development of female crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus at first maturation (25.5±3.8 g) was investigated using morphological criteria (Gonadosomatic and Hepatosomatic Indices or GSI and HSI), biochemical composition ...

Early juveniles of the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus were exposed for 60 d to 10 and 50 mg/L of pure glyphosate (acid form) in freshwater. Mortality was 33% at the highest concentration, while no differences in molting ...
