摘要: In this study, we investigated the body characteristics, carotenoid composition, and nutritional quality of Eriocheir sinensis with different hepatopancreas redness (a*). We distributed the crabs into two groups based on the hepatopancreas a* values and compared their body characteristics, chroma, carotenoid composition, and protein, lipid, total sugar, amino acid, and fatty acid content via paired t-test. The results revealed that the relationships between hepatopancreas a* values and crab quality are sex specific. In female crabs, the differences in nutritional characteristics were evident mainly in the hepatopancreases and ovaries. In the redder hepatopancreases, the content of zeaxanthin and beta-carotene increased, and the levels of C22:6n3 and C20:5n3 decreased (p < 0.05). In the ovaries, the content of astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, beta-carotene, umami, and sweet amino acids were lower in the redder hepatopancreas crabs (p < 0.05). In male crabs, there were positive relationships between hepatopancreas a* and amino acid and fatty acid content. The content of leucine, arginine, and total umami amino acids in muscles and of unsaturated fatty acids and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in hepatopancreases and testicles increased with increasing hepatopancreas a* values (p < 0.05). Therefore, the redder the hepatopancreas, the higher the nutritional quality of male crabs.
