Aquaculture Species Nutrition and Metabolism Solution
Our comprehensive solutions for aquatic nutrition and metabolism are tailor-made for aquatic animals bred in controlled water environments. At BioVenic, we utilize both traditional biochemical and advanced molecular techniques, along with appropriate experimental designs and methods, to provide animal nutritionists with a realistic and comprehensive understanding of the nutrient requirements and utilization mechanisms of aquaculture species. This knowledge enables better management of aquaculture species.
Nutrigenomics Solution for Aquaculture Species
Through our advanced omics technologies such as microbiomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, we elucidate the impacts of nutrition on the gastrointestinal health, immune system, and other physiological aspects of aquaculture species. We are also able to develop unique solutions to understand how different aquatic animals differ in their nutrient metabolism through genetic differences. This allows nutritionists to gain a better understanding of the nutrigenomics of aquaculture species.

Aquaculture Species Nutrition and Metabolism Mechanism Study
Understanding the mechanisms of digestion, absorption, and metabolism of feeds in different aquatic animals is crucial for feed development, health promotion, and the improvement of aquatic animal product quality. Our advanced in vivo and in vitro model development, nutrient composition analysis, nutritional metabolite analysis technologies, and assay development services, as well as proteome and microbiome assay platforms, cater to various aspects of mechanism research in aquaculture species nutrition.

Aquaculture Species Nutritional and Metabolic Disorder Solution
The metabolism of aquatic animal proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and other nutrients is closely linked to their physiological changes and disease occurrence. Proper nutrition is essential for maintaining a strong immune system in aquatic animals. With our advanced technologies including in vivo and in vitro model development, nutrient analysis, nutritional metabolite analysis, microbial analysis, and more, we provide researchers with solutions to study and address aquatic animal nutritional and metabolic disorders. Our solutions shed light on the interactions between nutritional metabolic diseases and immune function, redox balance, intestinal health, and microbial composition.
Feed Development for Aquaculture Species
Different aquaculture species have varying preferences for ingredients and feeding habits, which pose constraints in formulating feeds and managing feeding practices. Our platform for feed analysis and development aids in understanding the absorption and ingestion of various feeds in aquatic animals. We can help produce specially designed feeds or feed additives based on the nutritional needs and digestive physiology of different aquatic animals. Our expertise covers fish, shellfish, amphibians, and more.
Common feed additives for aquaculture species include:
- Feeding stimulants
- Antioxidants
- Color agents
- Antimicrobial agents
- Organic acids
- Immunostimulant agents
- Enzymes
- Hormones

Applications of Aquaculture Species Nutrition and Metabolism Solution
The Aquaculture Species Nutrition and Metabolism Solution offers a range of applications for the nutrition and metabolism of aquaculture species, including but not limited to:
- Determination of Nutritional Requirements
Through the analysis of feeds, development of aquatic animal models, and metabolite analysis, we gain insights into the digestibility of aquatic feeds. Additionally, we can assess the specific nutrient requirements of aquatic animals.
- Sustainable Aquafeed Development
Our feed development solutions focus on creating sustainable feed sources that do not deplete natural fish stocks or contribute to environmental pollution. This ensures the long-term viability of aquaculture practices.
- Nutrient Interaction Study
Various feed ingredients can have additive or antagonistic effects on aquatic animals. Our mechanism study solutions delve into the interactions between different nutrients and their combined effects on the health and growth of aquatic species. By understanding these interactions, we can optimize feed formulations and promote aquaculture health.
