Abstract

The pattern of growth and survival of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, an autochthonus marine human pathogenic bacterium responsible for gastroenteritis was tested in cooked marine shrimps, processed as headless-shell-on (HS) and peeled and undeveined (PUD), and stored at frozen and refrigerated temperature. Counts of V. parahaemolyticus decreased in cooked prawns stored at 5, 10 and -20°C. Better survival was noticed under frozen conditions in shrimps processed with chitinous exoskeleton than in exoskeleton-removed shrimps.
