BCF Life Sciences is a pioneer of circular economy and ensure the valorisation of poultry keratin in high functional ingredients can be considered in aquafeed formulation matrix for a more sustainable aquaculture industry. We also contribute for protecting the marine resources of being exploited by being a circular ingredient-expert company for aqua feed.
Kera-Stim stimulate physiological activities to overcome shrimp and fish challenges.
A unique mix of functional amino acids for Aqua
A unique amino acids profile
BCF Life Sciences has developed a tailor-made solution with a unique mix of 17 free amino acids (AA). These AA are belonging to essential AA and non-essential AA categories, but in addition, some of them are also functional AA, which are defined as those AA that participate in and regulate key metabolic pathways to improve health, survival and growth for aqua species.
The supplementation of this unique combination of functional AA provides direct benefits to overcome health challenges in relation with diseases, oxygen transportation, moulting management and water quality evolution, but also indirect benefits with strong attractant properties conferring higher feed intake and feed efficiency for shrimp and fish. The conjunction of all these benefits obtained through nutrition generates higher survival and biomass production for a higher profitability and moreover reducing the carbon footprint in the aqua value-chain.
