The amino acid profile of Pandalus borealis as whole organism, flesh and exoskeleton was investigated. Total amino acid values were expressed as (g/100 g crude protein, cp): whole organism (92.7), flesh (86.6) and exoskeleton (93.0). The least concentrated amino acid was Trp (5.35 e-2 to 8.06 e-1 g/100 g cp) and most varied at 96.3 % variation. The most concentrated essential amino acid was Val (6.14-7.28 g/100 g cp). Total essential amino acid (with His) was 37.9-40.9 g/100 g cp or 42.9-44.0 %. Leu/Ile range was 2.08-2.76; % Cys/TSAA range was 1.98-17.5. P-PER1, range was 1.21-1.71 and P-PER2 range was 1.65-2.12. Essential amino acid index ranged between 79.5-99.4 and biological value at 75.0-96.6 thereby making the flesh (highest EAAI and BV) behaving like a chicken egg in both the EAAI and BV. The Lys/Trp (L/T) was 3.05-62.5 and Met/Trp (M/T) range was 2.54-37.8. L/T for human muscle is 6.3. The limiting amino acid on egg comparison was Cys with values of 0.015-0.241 with highest variation of 138 %; on provisional amino acid scoring pattern, Trp was limiting in whole organism (0.054) and flesh (0.327) but it was Lys (0.447) in exoskeleton; this was reported in the pre-school child requirement with respective similar acid limiting values of 0.049, 0.248 and 0.424. The most concentrated amino acid group was class I (Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile). In the linear correlation coefficient comparisons, 5/6 or 83.3 % were significantly different at r = 0.05 at n-2 degrees of freedom.
