1st Worm experiment done and samples shipped!

SINTEF Ocean finished a trial on temperature and feed type effect. We fed a gradient form aquculture sludge to pure biogas digestate to the polychaete Hediste diversicolor.  Temperature had a pronounced effect on growth and survival, when it got too warm  survival decreased. The feed type had no pronounced effect on growth, all worms did well!
Most important: The samples arrived in Spain & Portugal for fatty acid, lipidomics and gene expression analysis to figure out if, and how much de novo synthesis we were able to stimulate.
Exciting times!
