The Center for Aquaculture Technologies Canada (CATC) is expanding its research facilities on Prince Edward Island with the acquisition of Elanco Animal Health’s former aquaculture R&D site.
Finnish researchers are using industrial side streams – from the forestry sector or the bioethanol industry - that contain renewable carbon sources to produce Pekilo mycoprotein, a form of single cell protein (SCP) derived from fungi.
Single cell protein (SCP) producer, Unibio, said it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the General Investment Authority of Saudi Arabia (SAGIA) to initiate a project to produce feed proteins from methane gas in that market.
UK start-up, Deep Branch Biotechnology, has completed validation work on its technology that converts carbon dioxide into a single cell protein for use in fish and monogastric feed.
Alltech Coppens claims to have become the first aquafeed producer to formulate feeds for net rather than digestible energy, a strategy it says ensures “consistent performance between different batches of feed.”
Applying bacteriophage to fish feeding using a WPI coating may stabilize phage delivery and boost use over time, in water, and during fish digestion, says researcher.
