New paper in Aquaculture Research.

 

 

“Rapid quantitation of feed rotifer (Brachionus plicatilis) fatty acids by Raman spectroscopy” https://doi.org/10.1111/are.16120 describes collaborative work between Otago (Chem) and led by Daniel Killeen from Plant and Food.  The paper describes how Raman spectroscopy may be used to establish the nutritional value of rotifers (a feedstock for juvenile fish) fed with specific diets.

Congratulations to Jeremy and Keith who contributed

The nutrient enrichment of the rotifers could be assessed and quantified by Raman spectroscopy.  This is a useful way to quality control high nutrition rotifer production.
