Fish nutrition
Developing feeds that optimise fish health and nutrition, and ingredients that promote a circular economy.
-
Simulating in vitro Atlantic salmon intestinal microbiome system
A go-to diagnostic system for testing new feeds prior to in vivo trials, providing deeper insight and driving down the costs of bringing new products to market.
-
Clinical nutrition and the treatment of Atlantic salmon gill diseases (NAGD)
The development of diagnostic tools for the pathophysiological responses to gill disease in Atlantic salmon.
-
Exploring the use of avian proteins in salmon feeds
Greater adoption of avian proteins; less reliance on imported feed products; sustainable use of locally available protein products; and a reduced carbon footprint.
-
Testing of novel health ingredients
Securing the viability of strategies that bolster mucosal robustness and mitigate stress-related immunosuppression by preserving the stock robustness and in turn reducing the risk of spiralling interventions due to increased susceptibility to infections.
