The goal is to achieve affordable prices for their use as raw material for the food industry (human and animal), as well as for the cosmetics sector and other industries.
Our Group is collaborating with this project. We will develop various diets for aquaculture species in the Mediterranean environment by introducing different levels of algae extracts and monitoring their results. With this project, our team aims to continue a line of research it has been pursing in recent years: reducing the use of additives of chemical origin and replacing them with those of natural origin. This is achieved without lowering the quality of our feed and final product and is even capable of strengthening individuals’ autoimmune response to potential pathologies.
