The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Fatty Acid Biomarkers Track Shrimp Diets | Ep. 71

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show's Norway Special Series, which explores aquaculture research and innovation from Norway, we examine how fatty acid profiling, including terrestrial markers found in salmon feed, can be used to test whether wild shrimp near salmon farms are feeding on aquaculture waste. Learn why lipid profiling supports environmental monitoring and strengthens sustainable aquaculture production. Listen now on all major platforms.

Inspired by the 2025 article titled "Fatty acid composition of northern shrimp Pandalus borealis in relation to salmon aquaculture locations in northern Norway" by Søvik, Guldborg et al
