Follow our project to see: How we sustainably exploit #chitin and #collagen from underutilised 🌊 marine species, such as: 🦀 invasive crustaceans (crabs) ⭐️ echinoderms (starfish) 🎐 ctenophores (jellyfish) 🎣 by-catch 🐠 cleaner fish (from aquaculture)

The final #BlueCC meeting was held in Brussels this week. The taste test of the collagen-spiked yoghurt was a great success, thank you to all participants!🐟🤩

Underutilised aquaculture products - including lumpfish - and invasive species could be more profitable, according to a team of European scientists. "We have taken a more consumer-driven approach to this research," said @RunarGS (@nofima) @thefishsite: thefishsite.com/articles/fin…

Technically a hybrid meeting, as half the team were unable to travel. Participants from @Nofima (hosts), @chalmersuniv and @CESAM_Univ were present, while the rest connected remotely on Teams. Nevertheless, a very successful meeting! bluecc.eu/2022/01/07/first-m…

Project meeting in Tromsø hosted by our coordinator @nofima. A successful two-day, hybrid meeting that boosted the collevtive effort across all WPs. Great to see these friendly faces again! 🥰

Seafood companies that want to increase the value of their residual raw material and use it in new products must comply with a wide range of regulations. A report from @Nofima can help navigate this regulatory jungle. BlueCC is featured in the report ✨ ➡️bluecc.eu/2021/12/08/feature…

We are developing eco-friendly marine ingredients and products from underutilised marine sources (e.g. invasive species, by-catch and aquaculture cleaner fish) 🙋 Our approach: Market acceptance 👀 Qué? Check out the process below! 📜 Full leaflet: bluecc.eu/wp-content/uploads…
1st annual meeting concluded! Super interesting presentations on the progress towards novel ways to commercially exploit underutilised and invasive marine species. Great to see everyone again - even on a screen! #BlueBioTechnology #bluebio

“Consumers want to know why marine by-products are being used, and why all this effort is placed in protecting marine resources,” says Themis Altintzoglou, a market researcher @BlueCC/@Nofima. Watch his presentation on #oceanday 🌊 Host: @jpioceans 💙 facebook.com/watch/?v=791133…
Themis from @nofima is LIVE introducing our work commercially exploiting collagen and chitin from untapped marine species 🌊 👋 Thanks for the invitation @jpioceans
We are now #LIVE on #Facebook for a presentation & Q&A with guest speaker Themis Altintzoglou from the @blueccproject - @BlueBioCOFUND ! 🐟 Watch here: fb.watch/5-hJKa_zV6/

It's European Maritime Day! 🌊 We take underutilised marine sources (e.g. fish by-catch & invasive crabs and jellyfish) and develop new eco-friendly marine ingredients and products in a market-acceptance approach #OceanEU #EMD #EMD2021 #BeGreeGoBlue #BlueEconomy #BlueBioeconomy

These are untapped resources of chitin, chitosan and collagen. If exploited further, the #marineingredients can be used in new product concepts that fulfill consumer demands for desirable and sustainable products from #ourocean.
