Today, a lot of trimmings and bones from white fish are used as raw material in fishmeal. Nutrients in bones, such as collagen and minerals, are not very soluble and are rather poorly utilized when using traditional technology.
Nutribone technology uses acid hydrolysis to dissolve the nutrients in fish bones, and this helps to make both collagen and minerals readily available for absorption. It has been shown that ingredients from fish bones are a very good source of phosphorus in salmon, and that it also gives a better red color in salmon meat. Release of phosphorus from fish bones makes it possible to reduce the use of other phosphorus sources, which today is a globally limited resource. Utilization of hydrolyzed collagen protein from bones opens up completely new areas of use, potentially up to human consumption.
The technology does not require large investment costs, and it is possible to use existing facilities to utilize the residual raw material in a more sustainable way, and create new high-quality products. VIS 'role in the project is to safeguard patents, have contact with industry and general business development for the technology.
