Abstract

The present study was the amount of protein content in different tissues of the marine shrimp Panaeus monodon and the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii was determined. Shrimp culture ponds in Kavali, Nellore District, Andhra Pradesh, India, provided the test specimens. Protein content was determined in several tissues. P. monodon muscle (148.00 0.03 mg/g) and gills (88 0.04 mg/g) protein levels were compared to Macrobrachium rosenbergiii muscle (135 0.02 mg/gm) and gills (81 0.03 mg/gm). P. monodon has the highest protein concentration compared to Macrbrachiium rosenbergii.
