Crab meat is widely consumed in several countries around the world. However, when consumed, crab meats are frequent cause of allergic reactions throughout the world. Scylla serrata is among the most common mud crab in Malaysia. In a previous study two major allergens of mud crab at 36 and 41 kDa was identified. Thus, the aim of this study is to further identify these major allergens by a proteomic approach. Protein extract was prepared and resolved by 2-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). Immunoblotting was then performed using reactive sera from patients with crab allergy. Major allergenic spots were then excised from the 2-DE gel and analysed by mass spectrometry. The 2-DE profile of the extract revealed approximately >100 protein spots between pH of 4.00 to 8.00. Mass spectrometry analysis has identified the 36 and 41 kDa proteins as tropomyosin and arginine kinase, respectively. Our findings indicated that tropomyosin and arginine kinase play a major role in allergic reaction to mud crab meat among local patients with crab meat allergy, and should be included in diagnostics and therapeutic strategies of this allergy.

<p><em>The study </em><em>of population biology </em><em>of mud crab <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Scylla</span> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">serrata</span> is necessary to </em><em>analyse </em><em>the population dynamics, </em><em>such as </em><em>growth of crabs, size distribution, mortality </em><em>and exploitation </em><em>rate</em><em>s</em><em> </em>of<em> </em><em>S. </em><em>s</em><em>errata. </em><em>Population biology </em><em>data collection </em><em>was </em><em>carried out</em><em> from March to June 2016 at</em><em> estuary and </em><em>s</em><em>ilvofishery area</em><em>s of three stations (</em>Mayangan, Tanjung Tiga and Blanakan villages)<em>.</em><em> </em><em>Data  were analyzed </em><em>using </em><em>analytical methods </em><em>of</em><em> FISAT-II (FAO-ICLARM Stock Assessment Toool II)instruments. </em><em>The results showed the growth of S. </em><em>s</em><em>errata male in Subang distric was </em><em>positive </em><em>allometric and the female was negative allometric</em><em>. </em><em>Growth coefficient (K) ranged from 0.21 to 0.43 in the estuary and from 0.28 to 0.89 in silvofishery area.</em><em> Exploitation rate in</em><em> the </em><em>silvofishery </em><em>area </em><em>has been </em><em>above the maximum exploitation rate.
