While instrumental in curbing diseases that plague aquatic populations, it’s also raised concerns about antibiotic resistance, environmental impact and the long-term sustainability of a vital food-production sector. Chile-based AQUIT Corporation may have a solution. By using a key protein that naturally occurs within fish to activate a salmon’s immunity, the biotech startup has created a new tool for the salmon industry to control infections that harm fish and lower yield. The company’s […] ## Pages - [R&D services](https://aquit.net/technology-duplicate-272/): R&D Services _ We partner with companies, research centers, and producers to accelerate innovation in aquaculture.
