Microalgae biorefinery concept – usage of residual biomass in aquafeeds
A partnership of SPAROS and Center of Marine Sciences of Algarve (Faro, Portugal) assessed the effect of a 10% incorporation of defatted microalgal biomass (Tetraselmis sp. CTP4), at the expense of soybean meal, on the growth performance, nutrient digestibility and physiological response to confinement stress in gilthead seabream juveniles.

Biofortification of carp fillets with n-3 PUFAs
The dietary inclusion of DHA-rich Schizochytrium sp biomass and a salmon by-products oil are effective strategies to enhance the n-3 PUFAs levels in common carp fillets.

SPAROS internal policy updates
SPAROS has updated its internal policy due to the new COVID-19 since March 12, 2020 for an indefinite period.

Alternative formulations for gilthead seabream
A study led by the Center of Marine Sciences of Algarve (Faro, Portugal) tested alternative diet formulations for gilthead seabream production, with low levels of fishmeal inclusion and using non-conventional feed ingredients of animal and plant origin that are not used directly for human consumption.

An in vitro approach with seabream bone-derived cells gives new insights on the mineralogenic role of individual vitamins and trace minerals
A new study published by SPAROS demonstrates that trace minerals and vitamins can have a pro-mineralogenic effect on a fish bone derived cell culture.
