PUBLIC CALL NOTICE FAPESC Nº 08/2024 - WOMEN+TECH PROGRAM 3rd EDITION

The project aims to develop an innovative product based on biotechnology that allows the creation of proteins with a sustainable footprint to contribute to the development of the aquaculture sector.

General Objective: To contribute to the development of sustainable aquaculture using biotechnology to reduce the use of fishmeal in feed production.

Specific Objectives:

1. Develop a fermented soy-based product.

2. Develop experimental diet formulations using fermented soybean meal with different levels of fishmeal replacement.

3. Evaluate the in vivo digestibility of the formulated feeds.
