Why Knip? The science behind the JUV™ product.
Knip was founded on the belief that expanding access to healthy, delicious seafood depends on improving production efficiency — ensuring that resources are effectively converted into marketable animals, both on farms and at a global scale.
JUV™ is a functional ingredient for aquafeeds that integrates seamlessly into feed formulas and extrusion processes, enhancing the performance of existing feeds on farms.
HIGH PROTEIN CONTENT
A high-quality protein delivery system for additional bioactive compounds.
GOOD FOR GUT HEALTH
Our fermented microbe functions as a prebiotic, promoting a more robust gut microbiome.
NATURAL + SUSTAINABLE
Our precision ingredients come from a naturally occurring microbe, using a simple fermentation process.
JUV™ improves stress resilience in all life stages in a series of on-farm trials

Post-stressor survival during IHN episode
JUV™ helps reduce disease-related mortalities
During a demonstration trial, fish diagnosed with IHN showed milder symptoms, delayed mortality, significantly improved survival, and maintained normal appetite, growth, and FCR when fed with JUV.

During post-stress
JUV™ helps maintain feeding period response of fish after stressful event
Following routine transfers of fish from indoor nursery to outdoor raceway, we saw that fish fed JUV maintained a normal, aggressive feeding response while fish fed a control only gradually returned to their normal behavior after a period of missed feeding-days and slow feeding activity.

Fermented from a naturally occurring microorganism that's found on common plants like the oak tree in your backyard or the lettuce in your salad.
It produces powerful bioactive molecules, including non-pigmenting carotenoids, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds, that deliver proven benefits.
Science-backed results, worth taking a look at.

Our process
PROPRIETARY
LEAF MICROBE
After years of searching the wild, we found a leaf bacteria capable of upcycling agricultural byproducts into an evidence based super food for fish.
COMMERCIAL SCALE
FERMENTATION
Knip's microbe is fermented in large bioreactors, then dried to make a feed ingredient that easily blends in with existing feed regiments.
HEALTHIER AND TASTIER
SALMONIDS AND SHRIMPS
A dozen+ feeding trials with renowned research organizations have shown a significant improvement in the survivability of salmonids (and the farmer's margin).
