    Determination of Appropriate Conditions for the Depuration of Razor Clams

    Trials carried out to determine appropriate conditions for the depuration of razor clams have found that, providing diver-gathered animals are banded and re-immersed soon after capture and kept banded during the depuration process, significant removal of E.coli can be achieved from shellfish artificially contaminated with primary sewage effluent. Shellfish contaminated to class C levels of E.coli achieved significant clearance of E.coli after 42 hours at 10 degrees centigrade and a salinity of 30% and with a shellfish to water ratio of 1:4 (w/w).

    Evaluation of Good Handling Practice for Razor Claims

    High-quality razor clams (Ensis spp.) are currently exported via airfreight to the Far East where they command a high price; there are believed to be substantial underutilised stocks around the UK.<brTo assist in the possible development of this fishery, different methods of capture and post-harvest handling of razor clams were investigated to examine the conditions of capture and storage most likely to produce and maintain high quality and viable live animals. The razors used in the study had been either diver-caught or harvested using a commercial fluidised-bed towed razor clam dredge.
