(OIST) developed a new way to raise aquaculture squid and treat a fatal parasite. OIST researchers identified a species of parasitic copepod, a type of crustacean that was feeding on the eggs and ******** off squid in the aquaculture tanks.

The exciting news: The researchers also discovered an eco-friendly way to treat the parasites and save the squid eggs.

“Only about 70% of the squid eggs hatched, and the young squids would often **** within 1-3 days from damage and infection,” Dr. Zdenek Lajbner told Phys.org. “And I’m glad to see that we have managed to eliminate a serious threat to the health of squids.”

After testing numerous solutions, the researchers found that peracetic acid (PAA)

. One of the benefits of using PAA is that it’s biodegradable, unlike other parasite treatments used in Japan that cause more damage to the environment.

According to another report posted in Phys.org, the new aquaculture method is the cheapest and

A variety of factors, including overfishing and rising global temperatures, have decreased the squid population, according to reports by Phys.org. However, thanks to the researchers at OIST, scientists can help regrow the population without harming the environment.
