Bio-Chemistry Laboratory
“You
are what you eat.” This is true for fish and shrimp as
well as the people who eat them. However, knowing what foods
contain requires scientific analysis. The staff of OI’s
Nutritional Biochemistry Laboratory, Dr. Zhi Yong Ju and Ms.
Lytha Conquest, use high-tech equipment, such as the High Performance
Liquid Chromatograph and the Gas Chromatograph, to measure
the nutritional components of fish and shrimp grown at OI,
as well as the food they eat. [More] |
