MICROENCAPSULATED FOOD COMPOSITION FOR FISH LARVAE AND METHOD FOR OBTAINING SAME BY SPRAY DRYING

摘要

The invention relates to a novel method for the production of inert foodstuffs for feeding fish larvae. Thus, the inventors of the present application have developed a novel and effective method which comprises the steps of: a) selecting the inputs and formulation; b) micronizing; c) mixing and preparing the emulsion; d) microencapsulating; and e) storing the microcapsules. The microencapsulated composition (10 to 140 µm) thus obtained has very good stability, high buoyancy and low leaching. In addition, said microcapsules can be aggregated in order to generate larger granules (200 to 800 µm) for the larvae of larger fish species.
