Crustacean prevention of melanosis and quality indices

Objective

The main technological problems that the proponents (crustacean fishing and trading companies) are facing are the quality problems in fresh and frozen products, mainly related with degradation of deepwater rose shrimp and discoloration and Melanesia of all crustacean captured or farmed. The main goals of the research project are the development of more efficient, alternative and safer products, particularly non-sulphite based, for treatment of crustaceanmelanosis; the development of tools (Aim's) for the rapid prediction of realistic shelf lives and risk assessment of the various crustacean; the determination of the most relevant quality indices for the quality assessment of crustacean; the reduction of the number of rejections, minimising microbiological hazards and development of much more cost-efficient quality assurance programmes; the significant improvement of the quality of crustacean landed by European Union vessels and increase of the proportion of crustaceans used for food.
