Abstract

La presente invención está encaminada a un método para la pigmentación roja de los crustáceos alimentándolos con una fuente de luteína, en la cual los crustáceos son langostinos, cangrejos de río, cangrejos y langosta. En una realización de la presente invención, la fuente de luteína es un microorganismo tal como el alga Neospongiococcum. Cuando la fuente de luteína es un microorganismo, las células del microorganismo, incluyen preferiblemente al menos aproximadamente 0.35 miligramos de luteína por gramo de peso celular seco, y la luteína está biológicamente disponible para la incorporación por parte de los crustáceos. Incluye la pigmentación de los crustáceos según se refiere más arriba, alimentando los crustáceos con un microorganismo que tiene un carotenoide conteniendo oxígeno de al menos aproximadamente 0.35 miligramos de carotenoide conteniendo oxígeno por gramo de peso celular seco. Los microorganismos preferidos son algas tal como Neospongiococcum. Una realización adicional de la presente invención es un ingrediente alimenticio para crustáceos que incluye luteína y/u otros carotenoides conteniendo oxígeno y colesterol.The present invention is directed to a method for red pigmentation of crustaceans by feeding them with a source of lutein, in which the crustaceans are prawns, crayfish, crabs and lobster. In one embodiment of the present invention, the source of lutein is a microorganism such as Neospongiococcum algae. When the source of lutein is a microorganism, the cells of the microorganism preferably include at least about 0.35 milligrams of lutein per gram of dry cell weight, and lutein is biologically available for incorporation by shellfish. It includes the pigmentation of the crustaceans as referred to above, feeding the crustaceans with a microorganism that has an oxygen-containing carotenoid of at least about 0.35 milligrams of oxygen-containing carotenoid per gram of dry cell weight. The preferred microorganisms are algae such as Neospongiococcum. A further embodiment of the present invention is a shellfish feed ingredient that includes lutein and / or other carotenoids containing oxygen and cholesterol.
