Nutritional value

Abalone is rich in nutrients, containing 64g of protein, 2g of fat, 3g of sugar per 100g of dried product, and is also rich in a variety of physiologically active substances, such as EPA, DHA, taurine, superoxide dismutase, etc., and is important for the maintenance of the body's pH balance, neuromuscular excitation of the metal elements (Ca2+, Mg2+, etc.) content is also rich. The content of metal elements (Ca2+, Mg2+, etc.) is also rich. It is found that the enzymatic digest of abalone muscle can significantly improve the exercise endurance, stress capacity and immune function of mice, as well as significantly enhance learning and memory. The water extracted supernatant of abalone muscle has obvious anticoagulant effect, and it has very significant effect on enhancing the activity of fibrinolysis in rabbits, which provides evidence for the blood-boosting effect of abalone. There are also minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, iron and a variety of vitamins needed by the human body.

Winter abalone collagen in the total protein content of up to 30% to 50%, much higher than the general fish and shellfish. Research findings show that collagen contains a variety of biologically active peptides, with good physiological functions, such as antioxidant, blood pressure, prevention of arthritis, protection of the gastric mucosa and anti-ulcer, promote skin collagen metabolism. In addition, high muscle collagen content has a greater impact on the texture of abalone. It has been reported that the reason why the texture of abalone is softer in summer than in winter is due to the lower collagen content in summer abalone. Heat treatment of abalone reveals that the hardness of abalone gradually decreases with the loss of collagen, with a linear relationship (r=0.82).
