- NuBios for Aquaculture
- During aquaculture, accumulation of uneaten feed and excreta creates a slucge on the bottom and turbid water above. Digestion of this unwanted matter by indiginous microbes is slow and takes dissolved oxygen away from the crop. In addition, there is a build up of ammonia, nitrates, and other toxic products.
- Also in an unfavorable environment the pond undergoes sudden changes, altering the microbial ecosystem ending in domination of pathogenic microbes like luminous vibrio, pseudomonas, aeromonas, etc. These microbes onvade the gut resulting in white gut disease.
- To overcome these situations, NuBios acts as a caretaker. This works on two different approaches, as bioaugmentation and competitive exclusion.
Bioaugmentation:
Regular addition of NuBios ensures natural, harmless microbes that are trained to produce a large amount of digestive enzymes in the aqyuatic environment. Continuous removal of organic waste and their conversion into beneficial microbes gives very little chance of the pathogens to grow and accumulate inside the pond. Also, regular digestion of the organic waste reduces BOD by fixing nitrogen and creating favorable pond environment of the crustacean.
Competitive Exclusion:
In an unfavorable environment the pond undergoes sudden changes, altering the microbial ecosystem ending in domination of pathogenic microbes like luminous vibrio, pseudomonas, aeromonas, etc. These microbes onvade the gut resulting in white gut disease. The active principles present in NuBios multiply in the pond and work as competitive flora and dominate the pathogens.

Technical Details & Test Data
- NuBios Bacillus Coagulans Demonstrates Superior Heat Resistance
NuBios survives twice as long as other commercially available strains, according to University of Nebraska Thermal Resistance Study
The heat resistance of three commercial probiotic strains of Bacillus coagulans, NuBios and two competitors already well established in the marketplace, were recently compared by determining their D-values at specific temperatures. D-values are defined as the time required to decrease the population of bacteria by 1 log CFU/ml (90% reduction) at a designated temperature. Strains with lower D-values are less resistant to heat.
As shown here, the time necessary to decrease the population of viable NuBios bacteria by 90% is approximately twice as long as the other two strains tested temperatures up to 105°C.
