    I have attached a paper of mine from 1989 that was published as
     Labuza, T.P., S. Lin, J. Lillemo and P.S. Taoukis. 1990. Inhibition of
    (black spot) formation in shrimp by ficin.
    LebensmittlenWissenshaft-und-Technologie.23:52-54

    This is not available in electronic format

    in addition go to my Food Chemistry Course page

    http://courses.che.umn.edu/05fscn4111%2D1f/

    once there scroll down to and click the Lecture notes and readings

    Once there scroll to the lecture schedule Click the link to Topic 7 Enzymes
    at Lecture 19

    There are two pdf files which you can download which describe enzyme
    reactions with examples of the PPO reaction which is the first step in
    melanosis. You can download it as a full page in color, or as B&W with 3 or
    6 slides per page. In addition below the lectures are two other papers on
    inhibition of shrimp melanosis.
