'Mycotoxin significantly and negatively affect animal in: growth rate, FCR, mortality rate. Raw materials originated from plant and supplement used as alternative for fish meal have high mycotoxin risk. Thus, how can we protect the animal?'.

The expert suggested that we should 'control the quality, analyze the ingredient used in feed production, use anti-mold supplement and a wide spectrum mycotoxin binder'. From there, he introduced the Olmix's solution: MT.X+ with substrate from algae, combine with other ingredients that can bind mycotoxins, provides a product with a wide spectrum for binding mycotoxins, even Fusarium.

Lastly, Mr Van Schoonhoven showed the results of several successful Olmix trials in aquaculture in different markets around the world and proved the effect of MTX+ in aquaculture feed, especially in fish feed.

Algae extracts to boost immunity

On the other hand, the APA technical seminars also counted on the presence of Olmix Group, which was represented in this case by Mr Alexandre Veille, Olmix Asia Aquaculture Product Manager. Mr Veille presented the topic 'An immune modulator algae extract to fight against diseases, the example of EMS in L. Vannamei'.

Based on disease diagnosis in shrimp, the use of antibiotics and infection of bacteria, Alexandre Veille provided the audience with the details of a natural, algae-based product: Searup, a combination of activities from MSP (Marine Sulphated Polysaccharides), vitamins and amino acids. MSP's immune modulation effect contributes to enhancing the immune system by activating specific receptors of the innate immune system.
