CQ Foods, Inc.’s Health and Body Composition Reader

A university used the Certified Quality Reader to monitor fish health at a rainbow trout flow-through raceway based farm.

The farm used the CQR to track proximate composition, including fat, water and health of the fish over a 12 month time frame.  Using the CQR versus killing fish to send to the lab produced significant savings and saved fish which are otherwise lost.

Proximate composition cost WITHOUT the Certified Quality Reader

150 fish * $110.00 (laboratory cost) = $16,500

Proximate composition cost with the Certified Quality Reader 

$1200

TOTAL SAVINGS of $14,50
