Full House – Science for Money

Full House signs a scientific collaboration agreement with Schering-Plough

November 13, 2010

Full House’s biotechnological development of  goes out to the world through the recent scientific collaboration agreement with Schering-Plough

The V Aquaculture Fair made in Puerto Montt on October 27, 2010 was the place chosen by the executive staffs of Schering-Plough, SARH Bioindustries and Full House, in order to sign a scientific collaboration agreement for products developed by Full House. The meeting was attended by Mr. Mario Reyes Salinas, CEO of Ful House, Mr. Cristino Strange of SARH Bioindustries and Mr. Hank Behrend of Schering-Plough, with their scientific and commercial managers team.

Through this way Full House is gaining ground in the world by developing its own technology. This is the case of Bioshave, another scientific achievement made by Mario Reyes and his team. This enzymatic and zootechnical additive was developed by Full House to combat parasitic Saprolegnia, and has been incorporated into the market through a spin off that becomes SARH Bioindustries.

Bioshave has all the qualities that biotech product must have, such as selectivity, efficiency, zero-traceability and environment and human health compatibility. It can combat disease caused by Oomycetes Saprolegnia sp., a microorganism responsible of big commercial losses of salmonid fish in freshwater stage. Bioshave works efficiently and without violating the international health requirements that prohibit the use of antibiotics and fungicides of teratogenic nature.

With this step Full House continues in its commitment to biotechnology.

The Aquaculture Biotechnology Node carried out on Thursday, 12 November, 2009 in Puerto Montt (Los Lagos Region) a training course on pathology “Saprolegnia, New Control Tools” related to this parasite-based disease present in fresh water. The activity began with the presentation of Mario Reyes, Technical Director of Full House and BioSarh biotechnology laboratory, who presented a summary of biotechnology in aquaculture.

Subsequently, Mr. Bruno Grossi, a representative of Full House, indicated that the Saprolegnia is responsible for more than 50 % of Coho salmon deaths in Japan and Chile, and between 15 % and 25 % of the deaths of its ova.

Moments later, Mr. Mario Reyes Acuña explained the characteristics of Bioshave, “It’s a biological enzymatic additive that biodegrades cellulose and chitin present in the cellular wall of the Saprolegnia sp. This compound is a two-phase natural origin liquid that, according to studies that have been carried out, is neither poisonous nor bio-cumulative and breaks the walls of the pathogen without causing resistance. It is recommended to apply 1-hour Bioshave baths although its efficiency has been verified at 20 minutes application. The recommended dose is 40 ml to 65 ml per m³ depending on the conditions of the culture, prior shaking of the product and dilution in 20 l of water”.

Before the course, a workshop was offered on “Public & Private Support Tools” dictated by Gastón Maltrain, excutive of InnovaChile. Mr. Maltrain presented different support tools for companies, individual business financing and Law 20.241 on CORFO Tax Incentives for private Research and Development.

Training Course: “Saprolegnia: New Control Tools” in Puerto Montt

November 9, 2009

Saprolegnia: a plague for the salmon industry.

Next Thursday November 12, a training course will be held about “Saprolegnia: New Control Tools”. The activity will take place from 02:30 PM in the Salón Osorno at the Diego de Almagro Hotel in Puerto Montt.

The seminar will be attended by Mr. Alejandro Yáñez C., Director of the Aquaculture Biotechnology Node; Mr. Mario Reyes, Technical Director of BioSarh S. A.; Mrs. Pedro Acuña, Mr. Enrique Galleguillos, Mr. Bruno Grossi and Mrs. Nelly Díaz.

The central subject of the course will be Saprolegnia, a disease that causes huge economic losses and is considered a plague by salmon producers. The participation in the event is free and invitation is extended to all organizations related to aquaculture, research and development and general public.

This event belongs to the 2nd phase of activities developed by the Dissemination and Transfer Node in Aquaculture Biotechnology of Universidad Austral de Chile, an entity co-financed by InnovaChile of CORFO and whose aim is to strengthen biotechnological development applied to different productive sectors of the aquaculture industry.
