“PNSB serve as biocontrol agents and can displace the need for the use of antibiotics or other chemicals to suppress the growth of pathogens and increase aquaculture resistance against the diseases”
Exploring the metabolic features of purple non-sulfur bacteria for waste carbon utilization and single-cell protein synthesis. Biomass Conversion and Biorefinery, 2022.
"Purple non-sulfur photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) may be a useful food for such notoriously difficult creatures as Dendronephthya and other filter feeders that specialize on eating microscopic plankton."
"Overall, this study demonstrated the potential of PNSB as nutritious feed ingredient for shrimp. This can contribute to circular economy, as PNSB enable resource recovery from wastewater."
