Antimelanosis for crustaceans

What are anti-melanostics?

Anti-melanostics are additives designed to prevent melanosis, an oxidative process that crustaceans undergo and causes the blackening of the shell, mainly in the cephalothorax. This phenomenon, although not a risk for consumption, negatively affects the appearance of the product, reducing its commercial value.


These products act by inhibiting the enzymes responsible for melanosis, allowing crustaceans to retain their colour and freshness for longer. They are essential in the fishing industry to ensure optimal presentation and prolong the visual and sensory quality of crustaceans.
