View Full Article Application of immunostimulants in larviculture: Feasibility and challenges
By ZhouJin, Shanghai Fisheries University
The paper seeks to evaluate the status and the potential for immunostimulation as an element in the strategy for solving microbial problems in larviculture. The focus is on fish, but the ideas are also applicable to other groups of organisms relevant to aquaculture.

more... Mycotoxins: The hidden menace?
Mycotoxins are a group of toxic compounds produced by some types of mold such as Aspergillus and Penicillium. There are over 200 mycotoxins that have been identified, most of which are known to have severe impacts on animals.
more... Peas as an Aquafeed Pellet Binder
The USA Dry Pea and Lentil Council contracted research with a large feed miller in the Philippines to assess the suitability of feed pea as a pellet binder. The trial results reported here shed new light on opportunities for using feed peas in aquaculture feeds, which are also applicable to other animal feeds.
more... Peas in Aquaculture Feeds
The worldwide aquaculture industry is becoming increasingly interested in plant-based sources of protein for feed. Studies show that grain legumes or pulses, such as field peas, exhibit good potential for aquaculture feeds.

View Full Article The Krill
Antarctic Krill (Euphausia suberba, Dana) is one of the least exploited marine resources, while it is also the most abundant. It is a small crustacean found in the South Atlantic Ocean. Krill is a tasteful and healthy food, with high protein content and omega-3 fatty acids. Krill is also a rich source of natural pigments, vitamins and other components highly valued in human food, animal/fish feed and nutraceutical companies.
