In consultation with the aquaculture industry, NZP has developed Mixed Bile Acids, which is easily incorporated into feeds.

Bile acids and cholesterol are precursors of sex hormones, adrenal cortex hormones, and skin-shedding hormones in crustaceans and are routinely added to prawn feeds for this purpose.

Bile acids are also potent olfactory stimulants to several fish species and improve fat utilisation and promote growth.
