Summary: The study investigated the bacterial microbiota composition of Mytilus cultivated near salmonid farms and determined the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) to florfenicol and oxytetracycline of its culturable bacteria. Results showed that sampling year affected alpha diversity of Mytilus microbiota, and a negative correlation was found in 2018 between alpha diversity and the tonnes of florfenicol reported. Proximity to salmon farms and sampling year influenced Mytilus microbiota and MIC values of bacterial isolates.

Summary: Alternative feed ingredients, such as blue mussel meal, can replace fish meal in farmed salmon feed without adversely affecting the fatty acid content of the fish. This study also found that including blue mussel meal in a meat-based diet led to a dose-dependent increase in the fatty acid ratios in mice livers.

Summary: This study examines the possibility of using proteins recovered from seafood industry side stream waters as a complement to fish meal (FM) in feed for Atlantic salmon. The results show that the use of alginate, carrageenan, and synthetic flocculant can successfully recover shrimp protein (SP) and herring protein (HP), and replacing FM with these proteins has no negative effect on the fish.

Summary: The study highlights the inconsistency in defining "offshore" aquaculture and the perception among stakeholders in Scotland regarding the key characteristics of offshore environments. While some stakeholders consider wave exposure as the main feature, existing regulations are deemed inadequate for offshore salmon production. This emphasizes the need for a consistent terminology and potential modifications to regulations in order to support offshore aquaculture development.

Summary: Anemia in salmonid aquaculture is a recognized blood disorder caused by the reduction of hemoglobin concentration and/or erythrocyte count. This health issue negatively affects fish growth and health due to sub-optimal oxygen supply to tissues, and can be linked to factors such as environmental changes, infectious agents, nutritional deficiencies, or hemorrhaging. The recent cases in Scottish salmon farming industry show the need for better understanding of anemia pathogenesis and development of effective mitigation strategies.

Summary: The ecosystem approach to aquaculture (EAA) is a strategy for sustainable development, with a focus on environmental impact indicators. Research in salmon aquaculture literature primarily revolves around near-field benthic impact indicators. When evaluating indicators, scalability and alignment with environmental indicator criteria are essential considerations.

Summary: The global reliance on seafood as a source of animal protein is increasing, with a shift towards farmed produce over wild caught due to various factors. Despite rising production, factors like disease outbreaks, toxic algae blooms, pollution, and food fraud continue to pose risks to the market, highlighting the need for accurate traceability tools for regulators to ensure consumer safety and trust. Techniques like trace element fingerprinting show promise in identifying the location and date of harvest of bivalve shellfish, providing a reliable scientific-based tool for seafood regulators to maintain food safety standards.

Summary: The analysis of benthic bacterial community structure has proven to be a powerful method for monitoring aquaculture disturbances in coastal environments. By studying the DNA of samples from various salmon-producing countries, core bacterial taxa have been identified that indicate different levels of aquaculture impact, regardless of specific conditions. This research provides valuable insights into the relationship between bacterial groups and benthic processes, contributing to a better understanding of ecosystem functioning in aquaculture sites.

Summary: This study investigated the transfer of fatty acids from broodstock diets to eggs and the time needed for the eggs to equilibrate to the diet in Southern flounder. The findings indicate that different diet treatments significantly affect the fatty acid composition of eggs, and it takes 8-16 weeks for the eggs to adapt to changes in the adult diet. These results are important for improving broodstock diets and feeding protocols in stock-enhancement programs.
