Abstract
Utilization of salt allows for a comparable or higher reduction of the bacterial load in Artemia nauplii than the ones obtained with more complicated or less durable techniques such as antibiotics, formaldehyde and ozone. As demonstrated in the present study, commercial enrichment products exist that allow for an achievement of similar results, but the use of salt does not limit the choice to enrichment products containing antimicrobial compounds, and produces minimal variations in the nutritional profiles of the Artemia. Therefore this new technique could be useful for all fish culture using Artemia.
