| Abstract | ||
| The present study is concerned with the biochemical composition: proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, ash, moisture and energy content, of the main parts of males and females of the commercial shrimp Metapenaeus affinis (H. Milne-Edwards).The shrimp was characterized by high constituent in protein specially in the flesh (the soft tissue). The percentages of proteins, lipids, carbohydrate, ash, moisture and the value of energy content were 14.356 %, 2.088 %, 8.9035 %, 5.64 %, 69.0116 and 137.350 (cal/gDW) . The analysis showed differences in the contents of the main parts of the body, for both sexes. | ||
