There was no significant difference in moisture, crude lipid, ash and VBN content between samples except the control for crude protein was the highest and TBA value was the lowest in Sample-2. Amino nitrogen content were 31.5, 32.5, 31.5 and 35.0 mg/100 g, respectively. For color values of canned oyster porridge, Control, Sample-1, Sample-2 and Sample-3 were 59.5, 62.7, 57.8 and 55.8 for the lightness (L-value), 5.7, -5.2, -4.5 and –4.7 for redness (a-value), 14.4, 12.0, 15.3 and 12.6 for the yellowness (b-value) and 41.1, 32.5, 35.5 and 31.7 for the color difference (⊿E), respectively. The total amino acids content was the highest in the Control and the major amino acids were proline and cysteine in all samples.
