Summary There is an increased interest in farmed salmon that contains lower levels of environmental toxins than we have today. Marine raw materials, especially fish oil, are the main source of the fat-soluble organic pollutants that have been related to food safety in farmed salmon. Producers of feed and feed ingredients have several options for reducing environmental toxins in farmed fish and ensuring compliance with international legislation for environmental toxins in the food chain. One way to reduce organic pollutants in farmed salmon is to remove the organic pollutants from fish oil. As of today, there are several commercial methods available to do this. A disadvantage is that the available methods that remove all relevant organic pollutants can also remove bioactive components in the oil. This can have an impact on the addition levels of these components to the fish feed, for optimal fish health, utilization of the feed, as well as the quality of the fish produced. This project aims to study how a commercial purifier uses an oil in fish feed under realistic farming conditions to produce a healthy farmed salmon that contains minimal levels of organic pollutants, but at the same time has high quality and nutritional status at slaughter. The future reduced blending of marine raw materials will increase the demand for high nutritional quality of marine raw materials.
Main objective: Implementation of commercially purified oil in fish feed under realistic farming conditions to produce a healthy farmed salmon with minimal levels of organic pollutants and at the same time high quality for the consumer and good nutritional status for the salmon.
