  • Methods for the enrichment of live feed with nutrients essential for fish larvae
    Patent number: 6261590
    Abstract: A method of enriching fish food and live larval fish prey, especially Artemia nauplii and rotifers, with essentially highly unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, amino acids, carotenoids and pigments. The live prey are allowed to ingest/adsorb dry soap powders of highly unsaturated fatty acids obtained from the waste stream of marine algae oil extraction. The live prey can be highly enriched in docosahexaenoic acid obtaining ratios of docosahexaenoic acid to eicosapentaenoic acid greater than about 2.0 to 1.0.

  • Complex protein-walled microcapsules containing lipid-walled microcapsules and method for producing same
    Patent number: 5776490
    Abstract: Complex protein walled microcapsules (40) incorporate lipid-walled microcapsules (48) that include constituents to be retained in the presence of hydration such as water soluble vitamins and minerals. The protein walled microcapsules (40) are cross-linked, and include constituents (46) that are excluded from the lipid-walled microcapsules (48) and which are leachable from the protein walled microcapsules upon hydration. Other constituents (42 and 44), such as high molecular weight compounds and particulates may also be included in the protein walled microcapsules (40). Preferably, these other constituents (42 and 44) are chosen to be retained within the protein-walled microcapsules (40) upon hydration.
