However, bivalve industry\ngrowth is falling behind fish aquaculture due to critical defects in the\nproduction process. Feed defects, disease, and quality issues are throttling\nproduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will develop a highly nutritious\nbivalve feed product, in the form of microencapsulated particles, and known as\nBioBullets. This feed will increase bivalve hatchery production rates through\nuplift in the quality of broodstock and higher survivorship and growth of\njuveniles. We have already demonstrated that our microencapsulates can be\ningested by a commercially farmed bivalve, the blue mussel Mytilus edulis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project will source nutritional\nencapsulates from waste streams, providing economic and sustainability benefits\nthrough a circular economy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"two-columns-content-right\">\n        <div class=\"related-members\">\n              \n\n    <article class=\"member \">\n    <div class=\"member-inner\">\n        <div class=\"member-info\">\n            <figure>\n                                    \n                        <picture class=\"image small\">  \n                <source srcset=\"https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/larantzamendi-3.jpg\"\/>\n                <img class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/larantzamendi-3.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/old.azti.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/larantzamendi-3.jpg\" alt=\"Leire Arantzamendi\" title=\"larantzamendi-3\"\/>\n            <\/picture>\n            \n                   \n            <\/figure>\n            <header>\n                                    <h6><a href=\"https:\/\/old.azti.es\/en\/team\/leire-arantzamendi\/\">Leire Arantzamendi<\/a><\/h6>\n                                <p>Project Manager<\/p>\n                <!--<a href=\"mailto:larantzamendi@azti.es\">larantzamendi@azti.es<\/a>-->\n                            <\/header>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/article>\n\n\n<a  href=\"https:\/\/old.azti.es\/equipo\" \n    class=\"filling-on-hover \"\n    target=\"_self\"\n    data-form-id=\"\"\n        >\n            <span><\/span>\n        Conoce al equipo de AZTI\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n<\/a>        <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2>Project Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"info-table\">\n    <table>\n                    <tr>\n                <td>Partners<\/td>\n                <td>\n                                                <p> AZTI, Matis, University of Cambridge, RethinkResource <\/p>                        \n                                        <\/td>\n            <\/tr>\n                    <tr>\n                <td>Funding<\/td>\n                <td>\n                                                <p> EIT Food, supported by the EIT a body of the European Union. <\/p>                        \n                                        <\/td>\n            <\/tr>\n                    <tr>\n                <td>Length<\/td>\n                <td>\n                                                <p> 2019 <\/p>                        \n                                        <\/td>\n            <\/tr>\n            <\/table>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":11694,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","contexts":[210,295],"application":[54],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.4.1 -
