    🥂 EU customer testimonial🥂 Oceanloop has been using KYTOS technology for well over a year to manage their microbiome at two landbased shrimp farming sites. Listen to Bert Wecker, CTO of Oceanloop on what he has to say: "Microbiome management is an essential part of water quality control in RAS to ensure welfare compliant farming. With KYTOS services, for the first time we have a toolbox that allows us to track important microbiome parameters to better evaluate the measures taken and improve our farming operations." The KYTOS team is committed to continuing to support the European RAS community towards sustainable, antibiotic-free fish and shrimp farming. #startup #aquaculture #hatchery #shrimp #RAS #microbiome

    How can freshwater RAS facilities mitigate the increasing threats from Water Molds (Oomycetes) related diseases? 🎯 Today, these organisms are difficult to detect because they have various lifestages that are difficult to sample, quantify and the data difficult to interpret. Both DNA and cultivation-based methods, which are bulk methods, tend to not accurately quantify the real pressure on the system. ⏱️On top of that, the methods are often too slow to serve operational decision making. 📈 KYTOS has developed predictive models that are capable of identifying the specific zoospore phenotype of Oomycetes at the single-cell level in aquatic environments. Currently our markers consist of putative #Saprolegnia, #Pythium, and #Pythophtora zoospores. But whats the advantage of measuring zoospores, you may ask? 🦠 Zoospores are the motile form of these disease-bearing organisms as they are spreading and colonizing the RAS. ⚠️Measuring the levels of zoospores to which the fish are exposed provides a quantitative and reproducible way of tracking health risks and optimizing treatment regimes. The KYTOS water mold markers are part of our standard service offering via the #KytoApp. Why not join other RAS producers in securing the safety of your crop?

    The microbial health of Recirculating aquaculture systems (#RAS) is crucial for maintaining optimal water quality for land-based fish farms. KYTOS is now expanding its already impressive list of #microbial #health #indicators for RAS to include #functional markers for #nitrifier #health. #Ammonia, a toxic component for fish, is metabolized by specialized organisms called Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria and Archaea (AOB/AOA), that grow slow and are notoriously difficult to manage. This makes it difficult for RAS technicians to monitor and ensure a stable biological function of the RAS biofilter, which can complicate operations and lead to disastrous outcomes. The KYTOS team is building these new indicators to not only shed light on the microbial black box of RAS systems, but to deliver practical indicators that RAS technicians can use to make faster, smarter decisions on how to best manage their systems. KYTOS is on a mission to become the RAS industries' one-stop-shop for #microbiome #management. Join others in experiencing our wonderful service: 🧪 Biosecure sampling using KytoVials 🏠 Rapid sample processing (1 BD) ☁️ Digital reporting workflow (mobile/web) 🕒 Timely results 📈 Full service programs 🙋 Expert support team Interested in finding out more?
