采用常规营养成分分析方法测定了东海海参中的主要营养成分。结果表明:冻鲜东海海参体壁中粗蛋白含量为16.50%,粗脂肪为0.20%,水分为77.43%,灰分为3.69%,VE含量为218 mg/kg。此外,东海海参体壁中还含有丰富的微量元素,但是重金属元素铅和砷的含量超标。脱皮后东海海参体壁中的重金属元素含量会大幅度降低,特别是铅和砷。东海海参体壁中含有17种氨基酸,其中7种为人体必需氨基酸,占氨基酸总量的18.54%,氨基酸中的4种呈味氨基酸总质量分数为4.78%,占氨基酸总量的56.10%。东海海参基本营养成分和梅花参、刺参一致,是一种低脂肪、富含胶原蛋白和微量元素的动物性食品。

The main nutrient components of sea cucumber( Acaudina molpadioidea) were tested and analyzed with routine methods. The results indicated that contents of crude protein,crude fat,moisture and ash of fresh meat were 16. 50 %,0. 20 %,77. 43 % and 3. 69 % respectively. The content of vitamin E in sea cucumber was 218 mg /kg. Moreover,there were abundant trace elements for people in sea cucumber. The content of total arsenic and lead were over standard in the meat of sea cucumber,but decreased significantly after peeling. There were 17 common amino acids in the meat,7 of them are essential amino acids for human. The percentage of essential amino acids was18. 54 % of the total amino acids. Four flavor amino acids was 4. 78 % of the sea cucumber weight which was56. 10% of the total amino acids. The results showed that the main nutrient component of Acaudina molpadioidea was similar to that of Thelenota ananas and Stichopus japonicu. In conclusion,sea cucumber( Acaudina molpadioidea) is a valuable marine biology resource with low fat,rich in collagen and trace elements better nutritive value.
