Red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) is a crustacean native to the South-central United States and Northern Mexico. It has been introduced in all continents except Australia and Antarctica, thus becoming the most widely distributed crayfish all over the world [52]. Procambarus clarkii is an omnivorous species, feeding mainly on...

In the rusty crayfish (Orconectes rusticus), toxicity of copper at high concentrations is due to the coagulatory action on cellular proteins and to interference with respiratory processes at low concentrations, copper causes degenerative changes in certain tissues and interferes with glutathione equilibrium (Hubschman 1967). Larvae of the red crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) exposed to copper as embryos are less sensitive than those exposed after hatching, suggesting acclimatization (Rice and Harrison 1983).

Louisiana crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) and blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) were analyzed for volatile flavor ccnponents. Dynamic headspace sampling, capillary column gas chromatography, mass spectrometry and chromatography-coupled aroma perception were used for characterization. 

Two commercially important species of Louisiana crayfish, Procambarus clarkii and P. acutus, from the Atchafalaya River Basin, from open ponds, and from the sediment and water of these environments, were sampled three times during two consecutive fishing (production) seasons [19]. The abdominal muscle and hepatopancreatic tissue were analyzed separately. Lead, Hg, and Cd, if present, were in concentrations below the limit of detection (LoD). The heptato-pancreatic tissue contained (in p,gkg 1) Ba<8, Cu 11-15, and Fe < 640. Abdominal muscle samples had <3 p,gkg 1 of most metals. Locations with the highest levels of metal residues in sediment were not necessarily locations where crayfish had the highest levels in their tissues.

The arsenosugars 56-59 were present in a freshwater crayfish Procambarus clarkii collected in the area affected by a toxic mine-tailing spill at Seville, Spain [155]. Different concentrations of the arsenosugars 56 (0.18 pg/g dry mass), 57 (0.077 pg/g), 58 (0.08 pg/g), and 59 (0.14 pg/g) were determined. No significant differences were seen with respect to the total arsenic contents between the sexes but they were seen between the area affected by the spill and the area not affected.
