Chitin-Chitosan Yield of Freshwater Crab (Potamon potamios, Olivier 1804) Shell [PDF]
Pakistan Veterinary Journal, 2010 In this study, freshwater crab (Potamon potamios, Olivier 1804), economically unevaluated, was used to obtain chitin-chitosan. Chitin-chitosan was extracted with standardized modified chemical method.

Nutritional Properties of Potamon potamios (Olivier, 1804) in the Lake of Eğirdir (Turkey) [PDF]
Pakistan Veterinary Journal, 2011 Some of the nutritional properties of Potamon potamios, captured from the Lake of Egirdir were investigated in relation to season and sex. In the laboratory, crab meat and crab shells were seperated.

Evolutionary History of True Crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura) and the Origin of Freshwater Crabs [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2014 Crabs of the infra-order Brachyura are one of the most diverse groups of crustaceans with approximately 7,000 described species in 98 families, occurring in marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats. The relationships among the brachyuran families are poorly understood due to the high morphological complexity of the group.

Anthropogenic CO2-mediated freshwater acidification limits survival, calcification, metabolism, and behaviour in stress-tolerant freshwater crustaceans [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2021 Dissolution of anthropogenic CO2 is chronically acidifying aquatic ecosystems. Studies indicate that ocean acidification will cause marine life, especially calcifying species, to suffer at the organism and ecosystem levels.

The highly rearranged mitochondrial genomes of the crabs Maja crispata and Maja squinado (Majidae) and gene order evolution in Brachyura [PDF]
, 2017 We sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of the spider crabs Maja crispata and Maja squinado (Majidae, Brachyura). Both genomes contain the whole set of 37 genes characteristic of Bilaterian genomes, encoded on both \u3b1- and \u3b2-strands.
