KnipBio reports that fish fed a diet containing 5% of its KnipBio Meal (KBM) – a single cell protein - had significantly lower levels of geosmin and methylisoborneol (MIB), the compounds responsible for creating off-flavors in RAS-raised fish.
A single cell protein from bacterium Methylobacterium extorquens show similar digestion and supported growth for farmed salmon and shrimp when replacing fishmeal, says researcher.
A Dutch research project, Power to Protein, is evaluating the potential to upcycle ammonia nitrogen from sewage water to a high value single cell protein for use in feed.
Alternative feed protein producer, UniBio, said a new study demonstrates the fermentation technology used in its methane gas fed production process is efficient in terms of productivity and energy usage.
A new, sustainable protein source for animal and fish feed is on the horizon, with its US developer getting ready to hit the start button on the production line at its facility in Ohio.
