Abstract

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid with important biological activity, even with greater antioxidant activity than other carotenoids. There are restrictions regarding the use of synthetics compounds, so there is interest in obtaining this carotenoid from natural sources. This compound is responsible for the characteristic pinkish color of shrimp, and shrimp farming has increased globally, however, so have the negative effects associated with this activity, mainly the generation of waste, which constitutes approximately 25-60% by weight of this crustacean.

Considering this aspect, the present study evaluated the obtaining and modelling the of astaxanthin extraction kinetics from shrimp shells (Litopenaeus vannamei) using the Soxhlet. Shrimp residues were characterized by proximal analysis, particle size and shape. The overall extraction yields, as well as the astaxanthin content were evaluated by gravimetric and spectrophotometric methods. The highest overall yield of the extraction process was obtained for the solvent ethanol+water (3.75%) and the highest concentration of astaxanthin was for solvents ethanol and methanol (292.2 and 296.0μg/g respectively). The model that presented the best fit to describe the extraction kinetics was the Peleg model, with a coefficient of determination varying between 0.93 and 0.98. The present research demonstrates the potential recovery of astaxanthin from shrimp waste, using ethanol.
