Research Project:
Improving the Use of Soybean in Salmon Aquaculture Feed by Increasing Immunotolerance to Soybean Proteins
Location: Plant Genetics Research
Project Number: 3622-21000-028-05
Project Type:
Reimbursable
Start Date: Oct 01, 2005
End Date: Sep 30, 2009
Objective:
Investigate the immunological reaction of salmon to soybean inclusion feeds will be investigated. The information will be used to design non-allergenic versions of the immunologically reactive protein that may be used to evaluate the potential for immunotherapy to increase soy utilization in salmon feed.
Approach:
Characterize the immunological response of salmon to soybean feed. Identify low cross-reactivity legume proteins- reagents for immunotherapy. Develop hypoallergenic protein variants for immunotherapy tests.
