Metabolomics to elucidate the effects of novel sustainable feed additives in the feed of farmed salmon (HoloFood Trial B - blue mussel-dose response)

An experimental trial was conducted on juvenile farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in the framework of the HoloFood project, which aims to test the effect of novel sustainable feed additives in the feed of farmed salmon. Trial B blue mussel was used as a novel sustainable protein feed source in the diet of Atlantic salmon. Blue mussel represents an alternative, more sustainable protein source than traditional fishmeal. The blue mussel meal was produced by de-shelled blue mussels, which were subsequently spray-dried. It was integrated into the diet, mainly replacing fishmeal as the protein source.

HoloFood Trial B - blue mussel-dose response is reported in the current study MTBLS4382.
HoloFood Trial A - seaweed-dose response is reported in MTBLS4381.
HoloFood Trial C - blue mussel ensilage-dose response is reported in MTBLS4384.
HoloFood Trial D - fermented seaweed open water-dose response is reported in MTBLS6733.
HoloFood Trial 1/2/3 is reported in MTBLS6988.
