Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aquaculture is an intensive and fast-growing industry that is designed to cope with a high demand for fish products. It is estimated that aquaculture can provide 62 percent of the total fish consumption by 2030. The latest guidelines for animal welfare, food safety, and the environment, besides consumer’s acceptance of farmed fish, are a challenge for the industry. Nutritional studies provide data about more sustainable ingredients in feeds, improving the production efficiency and fishes’ health/performance, which, therefore, comply with the sustainable development goals of the United Nations 2030 agenda. Furthermore, cutting-edge technologies like proteomics and metabolomics contribute to the study of fishes’ performance and welfare.
This Special Issue of Metabolites on proteomic and metabolomic analyses of fisheries and aquaculture will focus on studies of fish tissues and fluids resulting from wild fisheries and/or fish farming practices, including nutritional and welfare studies. In addition, new methods and data analysis concepts will be presented.
