Bibliography: leaves 73-91. / Abalone exposed to air incurred greater metabolic and
structural stress in muscle than do abalone at rest. Since foot and shell adductor muscle texture and flavor
affect economic values of H Midae, the investigation sought evidence of differences attributable to transport
of the commercial South African abalone based on environmental and exercise inducement. Tauropine dehydrogenase
from Haliotis. midae muscle exhibits its highest activity 53.85 X 13.56
U g-1 wet weight in shell adductor muscle.
The activities of octopine dehyedrogenase, strombine dehydrogenase or alanopine dehydrogenase in adductor muscle
were very low. Therefore, tauropine dehydrogenase was isolated from adductor muscles for enzymatic determination
oftauropine. Tauropine dehydrogenase was purified 8.5-fold with 47% recovery.
