- Product Highlights
- Shrimp aquaculture production is depressed by disease particularly caused by vibrio bacteria. Standard organic acids can be used to reduce the vibrio bacteria population, but can simultaneously create a too acidic environment for the shrimp.
- Water treatment (Ozone, UV, Filtering) is another way of approaching the problem, but will normally be expensive. Trials with NuGut as a new alternative have been performed with good results; Improved feed conversion ratio, increased survival of the shrimp in addition to reduced corrosion on equipment and safer handling.
- Most bacterial aquatic diseases are related to vibrio bacteria. These bacteria usually dominate the normal microflora of farmed and wild penaeoidean shrimp. Bacteria will colonize in the digestive tract, release toxins, and eventually destroy the digestive organ known as hepatopancreas. This is leading to high mortality - up to 90 percent.
- NuGut, has been developed and optimized to be used in all phases of shrimp production (from algae to growing phase). The product inhibits growth and biofilm formation of vibrio, not allowing vibrio species to colonize the digestive tracts of the shrimp. Shrimp feeding studies have shown positive results- with higher survival rate, increase in biomass and reduction in feed conversion cost.
- Benefits of NuGut
- Healthy Hepatopancreas to improve digestibility & to reduce FCR
- Healthy Gut Microflora by inhibiting harmful microbes in the gut
- Reduced Corrosion
- Reduced Odor/Evaporation of acids to improve Productivity
- Improves Quality of Shrimp Production by vreating a hygiene Ecosystem in the pond
- NuGut is a Unique, Versatile and Sustainable product
- Inhibiting growth and biofilm formation of vibrio, thus not allowing vibrio to colonize the digestive tracts of the shrimp
- Showing positive results in feeding studies with shrimp - both regarding survival rate, increase of biomass, conversion rate and feed cost
- In addition, the product can be used in all phases of the shrimp production (from algae to growing phase)
