Rainbow trout mucus: Sustainable biotreatment against fungi in egg incubation
Abstract
Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture is well-known in the Andean region. This production takes place in the highlands of the states of Mérida and Táchira, thanks to their favorable climatic and geographical conditions. Fresh trout is readily available to the local population. It has also become an integral part of Andean cuisine, appearing in a variety of dishes. Its flavor and versatility make it popular among consumers.
