Nofima will breed lumpsuckers to combat salmon lice
August 18, 2016
Scientists at Nofima have started to breed lumpsucker (lumpfish) families which have a special liking for consuming salmon lice. \"Louse eating is the sole reason that lumpsuckers are of interest to us, but not all lumpsuckers are equally keen on this diet. Currently, there is a great deal of uncertainty about the proportion of them that will eat lice. Some estimate 30-40 per cent, others believe that well over 50 per cent have this trait.\"

Mycotoxin experts map the current, future scientific landscape
August 11, 2016
New findings suggest that mycotoxins have a significant impact on livestock production including impairing gut health. Advances in mycotoxin detection and analytic techniques have shown the mycotoxin problem to be much larger and more diverse than once imagined, and addressing this serious issue requires cutting-edge mycotoxin deactivation methods. “For certain specialized bacteria, mycotoxins are delicious nutrients. These bacteria use enzymes that break down mycotoxins. We can put some of these enzymes to use as feed additives.”
Stirling University researchers forecast an increase in by-product materials for marine ingredients supply
August 11, 2016
Scientists at the University of Stirling have used models of current and future fisheries and aquaculture production, based on FAO data, to provide estimates for the future availability of raw material for marine ingredients. The model shows an increasing availability of raw material from by-product derived from aquaculture as that sector continues to grow, but also confirms an under-utilization of by-product from both fisheries and aquaculture at the current time. As the total volume of raw material, and fishmeal and fish oil production increases, by-product is predicted to provide an increasing proportion of the total.
