Abstract:
The suitability of micro-Kjeldahl, biuret and Folin-Ciocalteu methods of protein determination in analysing the haemolymph protein concentration of Scylla serrata was assessed. It was found that biuret method is simple, reliable and the results are consistent. Intra-individual factor as a function of time of day is also responsible for individual variability in the haemolymph protein concentration of the crab.
