The Central Luzon State University through the leadership of Dr. Emmanuel M. Vera Cruz developed the aquashade for the tilapia hatchery production in 2016. Shading the breeding area especially during the hot season was shown to reduce water temperature by as much as 40oC and enhance fry production by seven fold. Two designs of aquashade …
Among the various disease-causing pathogens, bacterial pathogens are the major cause of infections and disease problems in wild fish and fish reared in confined conditions. An important prerequisite for diagnosing and establishing proper treatment and preventive action against diseases is through disease detection. The Central Luzon State University through the leadership of Dr.Karl Marx A. …
The Central Luzon State University through the leadership of Dr. Juvy J. Monserate developed the Zeolite-silica Nanocomposite (ZNC) technology. The ZNC is a novel material synthesized and fully characterized at CLSU Nanotechnology R & D Facility. ZNC can be utilized as soil and water conditioner for aquaculture purposes. Because of its enhanced properties: 262 m2 …
The University of the Philippines through the leadership of Dr. Carmello del Castillo initiated the on-going project which started in the last quarter of 2020, it aimed to use medium-chain rich coconut oil and Mannan polysaccharide as bioactive feed additive to improve health and promote growth of seawater Nile Tilapia. Optimization of dose and blend …
The University of the Philippines through the leadership of Prof. Fredson Huervana initiated the on-going project which started in the last quarter of 2020, it aimed to involve the optimization of marine diatoms supplementation to tilapia diets as to increase the levels of EPA and DHA incorporation to tilapia flesh. This research assesses at what …
Ongoing projects under the Rice ISP include the development of low glycemic index rice through induced-mutation and marker-assisted selection by PhilRice – Batac. The project aims to contribute to addressing the problem of increasing the incidence of diabetes in the country. Glycemic index is a measurement carried out on carbohydrate-rich foods based on their tendency …
The Carrageenan Plant Growth Promoter (PGP) is a plant food supplement extracted from red seaweeds and degraded through gamma irradiation that is well known to elicit plant growth. Results of multi-location field trials by the UPLB and PhilRice in collaboration with DA and DOST Regional Offices in Regions 1, 2, 3, 4, 4A, 6, 9 …
Mussel Biotechnology Program developed high-value compounds such as shelf-stable bioactive peptides, encapsulated lipid products, and food-grade and lab-grade glycogen from mussels. Promising results include qualification for the protein nutritional claims, high levels of iron and polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acids, the presence of omega fatty acids, and anti-inflammatory activities. Patent application for the freeze-dried peptide …
