Unlock precision farming
Aquaculture
As bacterial disease outbreaks continue to plague the growing aquaculture industry, technological advances are struggling to provide suitable solutions. Survival rates in aquaculture are limited to 50% for most shrimp farmers and are even lower for many marine fish species. Current practices such as substandard agar plating and paleomicroscopic analysis remain the industry standard.
We wish to do something about it.
Analytical index
Despite the rapidly changing environment in aquaculture systems, the microbial community remains robust. Weekly measurements of the microbiome using KYTOS technology capture all changes in the pond cycle, allowing adequate response time.
Dynamics of microbial diversity in shrimp ponds, with samples taken twice daily (black line). Observations collected by routine KYTOS service programs are highlighted in orange.
Why choose us?
Instead of just looking at specific pathogens, we test for all the major bacteria, algae, fungi, and sometimes even viruses in your system. Using up to 100,000 individual cell measurements, we create a comprehensive bacterial fingerprint. Supervised learning models then convert this fingerprint into health indicators for the microbiome.
