Fish protein hydrolysate is obtained by hydrolysis of fresh fish meal/fish paste with non-gmo/natural enzymes and resulted in rich amino acids profile and high diversified concentrate of peptides.
It is a high added value ingredient to provide bioavailable proteins for animal feed.

Fish Protein Hydrolysate powder is an excellent amino acid product. It contains min. 80% of hydrolyzed protein have been used as partial substitutes for fishmeal in microdiets to enhance growth, survival and larval development, and reduce the incidence of skeletal deformities, thus improving larval quality in both freshwater and marine fish species.
Protein fraction weight between 1,000 and 10,000 Dalton has a positive effect on feeding activity in fish larvae, whereas peptides with lower molecular weight (200 to 2,500 Da) are reported to have beneficial effects in terms of larval growth, survival and activity of the digestive enzymes of the intestine.
The effectiveness of fish protein hydrolysates is recognised in aquaculture as a natural alternative to stimulate species' immune systems.
