We support the aquaculture industry in overcoming its environmental challenges by providing Nemona®, an effective and sustainable fish-delousing treatment.
Aquaculture is one of the largest sustainable food sources and vital for supporting the world’s growing population. Salmon, one of the most important fish in aquaculture, is facing a large threat from the sea louse – a very common parasite known to both fish farmers and wild salmon populations. As salmon in the sea increase, so does the number of potential sea lice hosts.
We support the aquaculture industry in overcoming its environmental challenges by providing Nemona®, a sustainable product controlling sea lice infestation. Nemona® is a special grade of hydrogen peroxide (chemical compound: H2O2) available as a prescription only medicine.
Hydrogen peroxide is one of the most widely used chemicals existing. When added to water, it breaks down into oxygen and water. Nemona® is applied in measured and controlled dozes to treat sea lice and is considered safe for the environment. Moreover, no negative effects on human health have been demonstrated by eating salmon treated with Nemona®.
