    Dear friends,

    My client would like to find information regarding phosphate in shrimp or prawns.

    Is there any standard or free scientific journals I can have access to in regards to the type of natural phosphate (P2O5) within shrimp and the method for testing phosphate-treated shrimp?

    Based on my knowledge that checking phosphate-treated shrimp is not by testing the phosphate, instead by testing the moisture content. Is this correct? What I want to know is there any official/scientific references for this matter?

    Thank you.

    Best regards,
    Gita
