This international study is funded through the NOAA Fisheries Office of Science and Technology. The overall goal of the proposed research is to identify fishery by-product meals that will best facilitate the incorporation of soy and corn protein meals into marine fish feeds. It is well established that fish proteins are nutritious and valuable feed commodities. However, in many areas of the world, fish processors currently discard large quantities of fish protein as processing waste due to a lack of appropriate technologies to process these by-products. NWFSC and the Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute (YSFRI) have independently developed unique industrial processes to produce by-product meals from fishery processing waste that are suitable ingredients for aquaculture feeds. These processes differ in their approach to digestion as the NWFSC process utilizes organic acids to digest tissue homogenates which is contrast to the enzymatic digestion utilized by the YSFRI process. In the past, NWFSC and YSFRI researchers have utilized processing waste from different fish species in their research. As such, it is uncertain how processing method effects protein functionality and structure, which meals may be best utilized by marine fish, and which meals can overcome the nutritional deficiencies inherent to plant proteins.
