“…Microorganisms in the pond cannot fully mineralize such waste because energy is lacking. A nutritious pond diet provides missing energy, improving production, farmer income and protein use efficiency, and provides essential nutrients often lacking in formulated feeds 27,28 . A healthy pond cost‐effectively produces healthy fish that are nutritious to the consumer.…”

“…Considering the ponds had zero-water exchange, a possible explanation might be that our ponds operated close to carrying capacity when harvested. When approaching the maximum biomass and feed load, the contribution of natural food to pond production will quickly diminish (Hermsen et al, 2020). Further research to test this hypothesis is recommended.…”

“…Additionally, replacement of fishmeal and fish oil with ω-3 fatty acid-poor plant-sourced products is limited by nutrient utilization and other physiological challenges including alterations in gut microbiome, modified immune functions and interference with the endocrine system, affecting animal development and increasing the risk of disease (502). A lack of ω-3 fatty acids in entirely plant-based aquafeeds, moreover, decreases the contents of these fatty acids in fish fillet, which implies a significant decrease in nutritional quality (503,504).…”

Microalgae are considered a promising platform for sustainable lipid production. Despite this, productivities need to be improved to facilitate an economically viable production process. This can be achieved through strain improvement, for instance by genetic engineering. Strain improvement strategies often deploy high-throughput screening platforms i.a. involving single-cell methodologies such as fluorescenceactivated cell sorting (FACS) for the identification and isolation of better-performing strains. The heterokont microalga Nannochloropsis is a prospective candidate for the industrial production of lipids. Previous studies have reported the isolation of high lipid-producing Nannochloropsis strains by combining qualitative staining of lipid bodies using the fluorophoric dye BODIPY with FACS methodology. However, it has never been investigated how cellular physiology and different staining conditions hamper the reproducibility of this method as a quantitative screening procedure. Here we report the development of an optimized single cell lipid screening procedure for Nannochloropsis oceanica. Systematic assessment of different staining conditions revealed that treatment with 6% DMSO and 1.2 μgml −1 BODIPY for 15 min is ideal for staining neutral lipids in an exponentially growing culture of N. oceanica. Cultures that are overproducing lipids, for example after exposure to external stimuli such as nutrient deprivation stress, require treatment with 10% DMSO and 1.2-1.6 μgml −1 BODIPY for 36 min to facilitate complete staining of lipid bodies. We verify that DMSO is required to permeabilize the particularly tough cell barrier of Nannochloropsis and we show that exposure to 10% DMSO does not affect cell viability. Increasing concentrations of BODIPY, however, correlated with a decrease in viability when screening stressed cultures. Using the optimized protocol, reproductive viabilities can be expected to be ~91% and 83-82% for non-stressed and stressed cultures respectively. The optimized procedure allows for a quantitative prediction of cellular neutral lipids (R 2 = 0.981), as determined by comparison to results obtained through a reference procedure. 13 subjected to gas chromatography (GC-FID). Total fatty acids were quantified based on the relative responses of individual fatty acids compared to the signal of the internal standard and normalised to the cell concentration. Statistical data treatmentAssociation of two variables was tested using Pearson's product-moment correlation, indicated as r (98). First, data were tested for univariate normality of underlying distributions using Shapiro-Wilk's test for normality (99) and for heteroscedasticity using the Breusch-Pagan test (100). If univariate normality or homoscedasticity could not be assumed, monotonic relationship between variables was tested using Spearman's rank correlation, indicated as r S (101). Data presented in section 2 were specifically tested for negative association between viability as a dependant variable and chemical concentrations as an in...
