Aqua Pro Technologies, Ltd. Aquaculture Probiotic Solutions
In the face of significant increase in demand for quality seafood at reasonable prices, acquaculture – the production and cultivation of sea plants and animals in controlled environments – has become a burgeoning industry. But the trend of rearing sea life in higher densities using intensive culture methods is limited by the risks of increased disease occurrence and transmittal.
The chemicals and antibiotics currently used to keep disease under control are vulnerable to resistant strains and pose health risks for humans; some have been shown to cause cancer, developmental deformities and serious side effects. Infectious disease is the most significant limiting factor in the expansion of the acquaculture industry; losses are estimated at over $5 billion a year.
Aqua Pro Technologies has developed a new aquaculture probiotic formula for feed that is safe for sea life, humans and the environment. Aqua Pro's patentable formulas and processes will revolutionize the aquaculture industry, improving both the quality and quantity of healthy sea life. Aqua Pro's advanced formula includes specific probiotic bacterial cultures, putative probiotics acquired from aquatic species and crucial feed additives; they are designed to enhance the immune response of cultured tilapia and Cyprinus carpio species while eliminating specific pathogens and pollutants.
