Aerial view of a hypersaline salt lake where Brinova Bio Artemia cysts are harvested

Aquaculture biotechnology · Direct-sourced supply

Pure salt-lake Artemia cysts engineered for peak hatchery yields

Sourced directly from primary producers in Kazakhstan, processed with 8-stage thermal activation and lab-tested batch by batch to guarantee up to 95%+ hatch rates (NPG > 280,000/g) for commercial shrimp and fish hatcheries globally.

Why hatcheries switch

Every gram is measured, not estimated

Brinova Bio exists for one job: putting predictable, biosecure live feed into your larval tanks so cost per million nauplii stops moving.

Pristine eco-origin

Nine pristine hypersaline salt lakes inside a protected UNESCO basin — zero agricultural or industrial contamination upstream.

Lab-verified batches

Hatch rate, NPG, moisture, protein, Salmonella and E. coli tested before any lot is released for export.

Documented compliance

ISO 6579 / ISO 16649 results, HACCP process control, phytosanitary and veterinary certificates with every shipment.

Export-ready logistics

Temperature-controlled freight, retail tins to 25 kg drums, OEM private labelling and full customs documentation.

Product range

Four grades, one biosecurity standard

From Grade A+ dry cysts for high-density nurseries to shell-free decapsulated feeds for weaning and SPF facilities.

8-stage precision processing

From shoreline harvest to nitrogen-flushed can

Each stage exists to protect embryonic viability — the reason our cysts still hatch synchronously years after packaging.

  1. 1Stage 1

    Hypersaline Lake Harvesting

    Harvested during natural seasonal concentration along the shorelines of 9 protected hypersaline salt lakes using gentle nets and selective skimming.

  2. 2Stage 2

    Cold-Chain Transportation

    Rapid transit to processing facilities in temperature-controlled refrigerated trailers maintained at 0°C to +10°C to preserve embryonic dormancy.

  3. 3Stage 3

    Inbound Laboratory Verification

    Comprehensive batch intake analysis: moisture content, purity screening, cyst fullness index, and baseline 24-hour test incubation.

  4. 4Stage 4

    High-Density Saline Wash & Silt Separation

    Multi-stage brine washing and calibrated vibrating mesh screens (100–150 μm) separate 99.8% of organic silt, algae, and mineral sand.

  5. 5Stage 5

    Industrial Centrifugal Dewatering

    Centrifugation reduces cyst moisture to 25–30% within 5–10 minutes, preventing fungal/bacterial proliferation.

  6. 6Stage 6

    Precision Thermal Activation

    Controlled thermal priming breaks diapause, synchronizing hatching dynamics and elevating hatch rates up to 95%.

  7. 7Stage 7

    Freshwater Rinsing & Low-Temp Drying

    Triple demineralized freshwater rinses followed by vacuum/convection drying under 40°C to achieve optimal moisture (≤6–8%).

  8. 8Stage 8

    Nitrogen-Flushed Hermetic Packaging

    Automated vacuum packaging with nitrogen gas barrier in metal cans and multi-layer foil bags for 24–60 month shelf stability.
