Beyond of those intrinsic factors related to the crustacean, the process of extraction of its meats is accomplished, in the great majority of the times, in unsatisfactory hygienic-sanitary condition, causing, like this, a high text of contamination of these. With the objective of analyzing the microbiologic, microscopic and parasitical quality of the crabmeat traded in two municipal districts of Pani (Sao Caetano de Odivelas and Braganya), 30 samples were researched, acquired from the meat collectors, in its points of collection. In the microbiologic analysis, presence was observed, in high levels, of fecal coliforms and S. aureus, in both municipal districts, however Salmonella (s. panama: sorogrupo D) was only detected in Braganya/Vila de Caratateua. It is stood out that, great part of collection points presented their samples out of the effective legal patterns in the current Brazilian legislation. The microscopic analysis revealed constant dirt presence (fragments and stick chips, seed, fibber and chips of vegetable origin, for the human, excrement and insect larva). However, the parasitical analysis was negative for the detection of cysts of protozoarius (E. histolytica/E. dispar and G. lamblia). The results reveal the precariousness of the hygienic-sanitary conditions of the researched samples, indicating this way the need of being created, on the part of the competent authorities, a registration of the Ministerio da Agricultura e Secretaria da Agricultura do Estado, so that the manufacturing and the commercialization of this product are made in agreement with Brazilian and state sanitary rules.porAcesso AbertoCaranguejoContaminação de alimentosMicrobiologia de alimentosBragança - PASão Caetano de Odivelas - PAPará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS DA SAUDE::SAUDE COLETIVA::SAUDE PUBLICA
