Nytt konsept for medisinbehandling mot lakselus

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

Aqua Pharma Group AS is initiating an R&D project to develop a new medicinal treatment concept for salmon farming in Norway. This project addresses the need for a more balanced approach between mechanical and medicinal treatments, aiming to improve fish health amid recent declines in fish welfare linked to increased fish handling and limited effective medicinal options. The project will focus on: 1. Developing effective new medicinal concept for both current and emerging fish health issues, such as parasites and wounds. 2. Establishing a balanced treatment strategy that minimizes fish handling stress and environmental impact. 3. Designing protocols that leverage synergies between medicinal products to achieve better treatment outcomes.
