Utilization of antarctic krill for food and feed

Physicochemical characterization and sorption behavior of Mg–Ca–Al (NO3) hydrotalcite-like compounds toward removal of fluoride from protein solutions

“…In order to understand the sorption type, equilibrium data were tested with Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm (Eqs. (5) and (6)). The mean free energy of adsorption was found to be <8 kJ/mol at studied conditions (Table 4), which indicated that the physisorption process might be the predominant process during fluoride sorption in protein solutions [43,44].…”

“…It must be paid attention that eating certain food with a naturally occurring high content in fluoride can lead to fluoride accumulation in human body [3]. Furthermore, krill is expected to be the last marine resource with high-quality protein that can be developed in the whole world [4,5]. Moren et al [6] have suggested that krill (Thysanoessa inermis and Euphausia superba) can be a good alternative of protein sources in fish diets.…”

Inclusion of fish and krill meal in extruded diets forOctopus vulgaris(Cuvier, 1797): assessment of acceptance

“…An extruded dry diet must be attractive and palatable for octopus, and this can be achieved using similar raw materials as those ingested during the octopus wildlife (such as small fish, bivalve molluscs or crustaceans). Indeed, krill meal is one of the most commonly used feed attractants for fish diets, due to its high palatability and high protein level (65.9–72.9%) (Yoshitomi ; Liu, Liu & Li ). All these reasons suggest the combined use of fish flours and krill like protein sources in the octopus nutrition.…”

A Positive Impact on Coastal and Marine Environment By Implementation of Biofloc System

“…The major capturing species were herring, sardines, mackerel, pilchards, anchovies, sand eels and other noncommercial species. The capturing of Krill was 80,000 tonnes/year for feeding farmed fish and crustaceans [11]. In 2006, 3724 tonnes of fish meal and 835 thousand tonnes of fish oil were consumed by aquaculture industries [12].…”
