Dear Mr. Donny,
In my doctoral thesis I worked with shrimp freezing optimizaion associated
with phosphate treatment. Here in Brazil we have a lot of bends of
phosphates each with specific results. I don´t know the percentage of
phosphate that you used but the concentration and time of exposure is very
importante to reach the best WCH and the best sensorial atributes.
I'm just writing some articles with phosphates application in seafood and
when publish I'll bring you, ok?
You can contact too with Mrs. Laura Garrido (shrimp@ufl.edu) from UF-Shrimp
School Coordinator, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida USA.
If you need more informations I'll be avaiable.
Kind regards,

Assunto: phosphate based for shrimp treatment
Dear All,
First of all I would like to say Happy New Year. Wish that 2007 is a good
and healthy year for everybody!
I’m from a shrimp processing company in Indonesia.
I have couple of questions on shrimp treatment issue.
We are currently using phosphate based chemical for treatment of the shrimps
(Sodium Tripolyphosphate / STPP) but the weight pick up is not quite
satisfying, we want to do a bit more research on, maybe or potentially new
chemical out there which might be able to be applied in our processing.
Based on my knowledge, phosphate based chemicals are better in the capacity
of holding more liquid and moisture in shrimp muscle than any other
non-phosphate based chemicals.
I want to know is there any other chemicals that can be used as a good
substitution for STPP which good for shrimp weight pick up after soaking /
treatment?
Thanking You all in advance and hope you all can assist.
Best regards,
Donny Ng
