The transport of live seafood and aquatic products method

Live seafood aquatic means of transportation to local conditions, two types of dry and wet-based, summed up in general there are several.
1. Dry operation
Transport Act, also known as anhydrous dry operation, it is water cooled to the temperature of fish and suspend activities of life, and then dehydrated transport, arrival, and then fish into the water, they will wake up again. In the dehydrated state, its life may last for 24 hours or more. The Transport Law not only greatly increased the degree of live fish and shrimp, but it will save shipping costs, is an ideal means of transport. Such as Japan, shrimp, crab, lobster and other cardboard or foam can quiet wood container transport, see the "live lobster transport" section.
2. Drenching Transport
For mussels, scallops, clams, oysters, blue crab, etc., in transit to regularly observe and spray water.
3. Canvas bucket transport
Sewn into the canvas by canvas bucket, most of the bottom square, a few round, its length and height can travel, according to the number and volume of transport may be, is generally 0.8 ~ 1.2m. After brushing wax made with iron frame support, the number of shipments according to fish body size, water level, transportation and other conditions fixed duration, usually per ton of water can be loaded into the fish around 100kg. By train, car, coach or ship transportation may be the way to change the water approach to supplemental oxygen, the water quality of the water changes must be handled in advance, to avoid accidents. General fortune of up to 6 days. If you often inflated or oxygenation to the barrel, fortune is longer. This method is safe, but slightly higher cost of equipment. If the high survival rate is still quite cost-effective.
4. Plastic packaging and transportation
Disinfection first live fish in plastic bag with a good load of water, then the number of fish in different sizes and load, and then squeezed out the air bag, and poured into the amount of oxygen, with a rubber band tightening bags mouth. And then in plastic bags into cardboard boxes, each box can be installed 1 to 2 bags, the best foam cartons, high summer temperatures can be put inside a small bag of ice to cool. This method is now widely used around the world, safety factor.
5. Refrigerated transport
Using special refrigerated transport container shipment of live fish. General transport boxes insulated with 20cm thick polyurethane blame the board, with a stainless steel frame, into the sea about 100L and 90L of water, then the volume of fish and 90L 800L is equivalent to the ice into the box. Mouth in a closed container before, then add ice to 30L.
6. Drug delivery method
(1) MS-222 anesthesia Transport Law
With a concentration of 0.2 × 10E-6 ~ 1 × 10E-6 of MS-222 (m-amino benzoic acid alkyl ester sulfonate) solution shipping live fish, live fish were anesthetized for 40 hours or more after the long-distance transport . Upon arrival, live fish into the pool will quickly wake up.
(2) carbonated water transport law
The live fish into the 500 × 10E-6 carbonate aqueous solution 1 to 2 days transportation, survival rate was 90%.
(3) ether anesthesia Transport Law
In cotton, cloth, pour on water plants such as diethyl ether (diethyl ether per kilogram of live fish 2 ~ 3ml), stuffed fish mouth, 2 to 3 minutes, the fish was unconscious, then the fish into the water canvas Sheng Youqing drum containers for transport, one can be anesthetized 2 to 3 hours. This method is relatively simple, suitable for short-distance transport.
(4) determined that the solution of transport law Kui
Available 1 / 200000 ~ 1 / 10000 of the Kui then it's solution or 0.1% to 0.4% of the Ukraine to Tanzania solution, will not transport live fish after anesthesia.
(5) pentobarbital sodium transport law
The live fish into the 7 × 10E-6 ~ 13 × 10E-6 of pentobarbital sodium solution in the transport, the fish belly will be facing up when the water temperature 10 ℃ anesthesia 10 hours. Upon arrival, fish were placed in the aquarium or pond 5 to 10 minutes after waking. Larger fish, such as transport, injection of 0.1mg per kg of fish pentobarbital sodium, anesthesia can fish 10 to 12 hours. Found after injection, fish in the water, breathing is extremely weak, should be quickly injected nikethamide or tea caffeine, sodium formate, the concentration of each fish to 25% of injected liquid 1ml, if the injection of anesthetic, the fish collision is still jumping, should be supplemented injection liquid, until the anesthesia so far.
The use of narcotic medication for more than transportation, according to the specific conditions and medicines around the source may be.
