The present invention relates, at least in part to, formulations that have improved caloric profile as well as flavor, taste and/or mouthfeel.

The present invention relates to a method for converting insects into a nutrient stream, such as a puree, an enzymatically hydrolysed puree, a fat fraction and a protein fraction. The invention further relates to the (hydrolysed) puree and to the fractions obtainable by said methods and to their use as a food or feed product or as an ingredient therefore. The invention also relates to a method for converting insect larvae into a composition with anti-oxidant properties. Thus, the invention also relates to a method for converting insect larvae into an antioxidant composition. In addition, the invention relates to a composition with anti-oxidant properties obtainable by said method and to the use of the composition as a health promoting food ingredient or as a feed ingredient.

The present invention falls within the technical field of aquaculture, and specifically, the invention relates to a specific solution for preventing and treating bacterial diseases using a Lactococcus lactis lactic acid bacterium transformed to produce an interferon type II (IFN II) immunostimulating cytokine, particularly interferon gamma (IFNg or IFNγ). Said transformed bacterium has been deposited in the Chilean Microbial Genetic Resources Collection at INIA with accession number RGM 2416 dated 22 Oct. 2017. The invention is also related to an immunostimulating food for aquaculture species comprising the lactic acid bacterium transformed with IFN type II from salmonidae. Moreover, the invention relates to the method for preparing said probiotic food, the method for preparing said lactic acid bacterium expressing IFNg, in other words which produces a cytokine that stimulates the antibacterial immune response.

The present invention relates to a system and a method of manufacturing a feed product for farmed animals in an aquaculture environment, including but not limited to fish, shrimps, and crabs. The method of manufacturing the aquaculture feed comprising the steps of providing and contacting water, a fatty acid component, a protein source, and a feed stabiliser, and a suspension is formed. The feed stabiliser has a setting condition represented by a setting component. The feed stabiliser is contacted with the water at an activation condition, and the concentration of the setting component in the shaped suspension is increased to the setting condition of the feed stabiliser to obtain the aquaculture feed.
