ChaetoPrime - Premium pathogen free freeze dried Chaetoceros muelleri

Chaetoceros muelleri is one of the most extensively used microalgae in aquaculture. Chaetoceros is a rich source of both valuable ω-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, but also cholesterol. In addition, it contains high levels of carotenoids/antioxidants such as fucoxanthin and diadinoxanthin.

ChaetoPrime consists of Chaetoceros muelleri (CHGRA) that is produced under the most stringently controlled conditions (HACCP and FCA certified by SGS (FCA certificate BE 01/1522.GF)). Chaetoceros produced at Proviron accumulates high levels of the ω-3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) present in a readily bioavailable form. It is freeze dried according to a proprietary process to yield a premium grade product with the longest shelf life, no nutrient leakage, maintenance of the correct lipid profiles and an ensured bioavailability of ω-3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids.

ChaetoPrime offers:

• Optimal nutrient profile: High levels of the ω-3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), sterols (cholesterol), vitamins and pigments/antioxidants such as fucoxanthin and diadinoxanthin.
• Single Cell dispersion: Excellent for filter feeders and Green Water Technique thanks to the single cell dispersion. ChaetoPrime remains in the water column for very long periods without fouling your tanks.
• Gut development: Gives the larvae a head start by activating the digestive system.
• Rotifer (pre)-enrichment: High levels of EPA, DHA and cholesterol, and pigments such as fucoxanthin and diadinoxanthin.
• Pathogen free:  No sourcing from natural salt water. No fish, shrimp, shellfish or other aquatic organisms (pathogen vectors) grown in the vicinity of our production. Constant biological monitoring.
• Long shelf life: ChaetoPrime can be stored for 36 months in normal conditions. It does not need to be frozen or cooled.
