Summary The choice and purchase of raw materials for feed production is crucial for BioMar's competitiveness because feed contracts are entered into mainly based on feed prices. Raw materials make up about 80% of feed price. Raw materials that cannot be included in the human food network because the competition for such raw materials is less, will now be used to a greater extent. This requires new knowledge, new evaluation methods and new ways of making feed. Alternative raw materials can strongly challenge the function of the intestine and the immune system. It is reasonable to assume that the intestinal problems that have been observed in the industry in recent years and the reduced feed utilization that is observed may have common causes. The intestine is not only important for digestion and absorption of nutrients. It is also the most diverse and largest organ in an organism's immune system. An animal cannot function optimally without a well-functioning gut. The aim of the project is to develop feed for salmon without fishmeal or other animal protein raw materials that do not have negative effects on fat metabolism and the immune system and thereby feed intake, growth and feed utilization. fish digestion and fat metabolism and immune responses using classical and molecular biology methods. The results will be integrated and analyzed using bioinformatics-based statistical methods. The results will be used to formulate feed without fishmeal and / or animal protein raw materials where the addition of identified bioactive components ensures that negative effects on fat metabolism and immune response are avoided.
