- Digestibility
80% of the protein fraction is smaller than 500 Da. Literature explains the digestive system can directly assimilate amino acids and small peptides of this size, without need for prior digestion. In N retention trials with piglets a digestibility of 100% has been determined (higher than reference protein caseine

Technical Details & Test Data
- Conclusion
The replacement of 5% LT fishmeal by MucoPro has a positive effect on growth of trout larvae. A similar effect is observed when MucoPro is included in diets for shrimp juveniles. MucoPro is a valuable alternative for fish meal in diets for trout and shrimp. Recommend dosage of MucoPro powder in trout & shrimp feeds: up to 5-6% of the diet
Safety & Health
- Viral and BSE Safety
The product is safe with regard to viruses, as the various production steps (hydrolysis and evaporation) in the process of MucoPro are effective and well documented virus reduction steps. Periodical screening using PCR techniques is applied to validate for absence of ruminant protein.
