Project Overview

The salmon industry faces persistent challenges due to suboptimal feed efficiency and the impacts of parasitic pressures in aquaculture environments. These challenges can lead to reduced growth performance, higher production costs, and increased environmental stress. Traditional methods to address these issues, including chemical treatments and mechanical interventions, often come with drawbacks such as environmental risks, fish stress, and diminishing effectiveness.

Research has shown that the salmon gut microbiota plays a crucial role in metabolizing nutrients, supporting digestive efficiency, and maintaining feed conversion ratios. Beneficial bacteria within the gut microbiome contribute to these processes by producing essential metabolites and aiding in the utilization of key dietary components. When these beneficial bacterial populations are imbalanced or diminished, feed efficiency may decline, impacting salmon growth and performance.

A pioneering collaboration between researchers from AquaBIOTEK in Chile and microXpace has resulted in the development of SalmonX—a next-generation feed material designed to promote efficient growth in salmon farming operations.

Nutritional Solution

SalmonX utilizes a proprietary, patent-protected microbial fermentation technology that incorporates selected bacterial strains. This innovative product is formulated as an oral feed material, ensuring seamless integration into existing feeding protocols without the need for labor-intensive or stressful administration procedures.

Key benefits of SalmonX:
*Environmentally sustainable formulation
*Easily administered via existing feed practices
*Developed with advanced microbiota research from Chilean and microXpace scientists

SalmonX has undergone extensive trials in Salmons, consistently demonstrating its ability to optimize growth performance. The product complies with EU feed material regulations. Discover how SalmonX can support sustainable salmon farming practices. Because better nutrition leads to better aquaculture.
