Nutrient Absorption Timing In Fish Plant Diets | Ep. 61
In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how plant-based diets, zinc absorption, and water temperature influence nutrient uptake in Atlantic salmon. Modern feed strategies can support sustainable production without disrupting mineral utilization, but nutrient timing changes dramatically throughout digestion. Rising ocean temperatures may also reshape how fish process essential nutrients in commercial systems. Listen now on all major platforms!
Inspired by the 2024 article titled "The Interaction Between Dietary Fat Level, n‐3 LC‐PUFA, and Zinc on Their Postprandial Absorption Kinetics in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)" by Fang, HaoHang, et al.

”Single blood sampling methods risk misinterpreting feed performance because nutrient absorption pathways activate at completely different postprandial periods.”
