We help keep your fish Healthy & Robust
Using Veribarr™ and Quantidoc's extensive knowledge, fish farmers can keep their fish healthy by implementing a proactive approach to fish barrier health management. This involves continuous monitoring of fish barrier health using Veribarr™, and taking preventative measures before diseases and mortality occur.
Quantidoc's team of experts can provide guidance on how to interpret Veribarr™ results and implement best practices for fish barrier health management. By combining Veribarr™ data with other indicators of fish health, such as feed consumption, growth rate, and behaviour, farmers can have a more comprehensive understanding of their fish health status and take timely actions to ensure the sustainable production of high-quality fish.
Veribarr™ - The solution for proactive fish barrier health control.
The increasing rate of disease and mortality in fish farming has a significant impact on the growth potential of the industry. Therefore, it is important for fish farmers to implement proactive health barrier control to prevent disease outbreaks and promote optimal fish health and welfare, which improves the industry's competitiveness, consumer confidence, and growth potential.
Veribarr™
The industry standard for quantifying fish health & robustness
Veribarr™ by Quantidoc is a proactive and innovative solution for the global fish farming industry to monitor and maintain fish barrier health of gills, gut and skin.
Using advanced technology, Veribarr™ measures the area and density of mucus cells, providing early warning of the fish's mucosal status and enabling farmers to take preventative measures before diseases and mortality occur.
Stay proactive and take preventative measures before diseases and mortality occur.
The industry standard for verifying and maintaining the health and robustness of fish mucosal barriers
By continuously monitoring fish barrier health, Veribarr™ promotes the fish's immune system and robustness, contributing to the industry's long-term success and sustainability. With Veribarr™, our clients can achieve their production objectives while minimizing the risk of disease and mortality. Veribarr™ is the industry standard for verifying and maintaining the health and robustness of fish mucosal barriers and has been instrumental in improving the quality and sustainability of fish farming worldwide.
Veribarr™provides fish farmers with a range of benefits, including:
Early Warning System
Veribarr™ measures the area and density of mucus cells, providing early warning of the fish's mucosal status and enabling farmers to take preventative measures before diseases and mortality occur. This reduces the risk of fish loss and helps maintain productivity.
Improved Fish Health
By continuously monitoring fish barrier health, Veribarr™ promotes the fish's immune system and robustness, leading to healthier and more resilient fish that are less susceptible to diseases and parasites. This leads to improved fish health and welfare and reduced use of antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals.
Increased Productivity
By maintaining optimal fish barrier health, farmers can increase the productivity and profitability of their operations. This is achieved through reduced fish loss, improved feed conversion rates, and increased fish growth rates.
Enhanced Sustainability
Veribarr™ helps fish farmers to produce fish in a more sustainable manner by reducing the risk of disease outbreaks and the need for antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals. This leads to a lower environmental impact and a more sustainable industry overall.
This is how we help the fish farming industry keep their fish healthy!

The problems we solve
In 2022, more than 58 million fish died on Norwegian farms, representing 15% of production. Since 2012, the biological cost of fish farming has doubled soon becoming the largest cost component.
High rates of disease and death have major implications for the industry, such as:
-
The increasing rate of disease and mortality in fish farming on a global scale can have a significant impact on the growth potential of the industry. Therefore, it is important for fish farmers to implement proactive health barrier control measures to prevent disease outbreaks and promote optimal fish health and welfare, which can improve the industry's competitiveness, consumer confidence, and growth potential.
-
Disease outbreaks can result in high mortality rates, which can reduce the overall biomass of the fish stock. This can result in lower production capacity and reduced profitability for fish farmers.
-
Disease outbreaks can result in increased production costs due to the need for treatments and operational measures. This can increase the cost of production and reduce the competitiveness of farmed fish products in the market.
-
Disease outbreaks can lead to reduced consumer confidence in the safety and quality of farmed fish products. This can lead to reduced demand for farmed fish products and negatively impact the growth potential of the industry.
-
Disease outbreaks can result in non-compliance with regulations and standards related to fish health and welfare. This can lead to fines and other penalties, negatively impacting the reputation and growth potential of the industry.
The solutions we deliver
As the first line of defense against parasites and pathogens, keeping the mucosal membranes of fish's skin, gut, and gills healthy is crucial to their health and welfare.
We have developed three different solution alternatives providing clear benefits for the global fish farming industry.

The value we create
By mapping the mucosal barrier strength for the skin, gills and gut the health status of the stock can be monitored.
Fish farming can benefit significantly from maintaining the strength of these barriers through continuous mucosal mapping, such as:
-
Barrier health control through continuous mucosal mapping of the skin, gills, and gut in fish farming can improve fish health and welfare by reducing pathogen exposure, enhancing immunity, improving nutrient absorption, reducing stress, and reducing the need for medical treatment.
-
Proactive health barrier control through continuous mucosal mapping of the skin, gills, and gut can improve growth ratio and production by detecting health issues early, improving feed conversion efficiency, reducing stress levels, and enhancing biosecurity
-
Proactive barrier health control through continuous mucosal mapping can help identify changes in the health of fish at an early stage, enabling prompt intervention and treatment before diseases can spread throughout the fish population. This can prevent significant economic losses
-
Proactive barrier health control through continuous mucosal mapping can reduce mortality rates in fish farming by detecting diseases and environmental stressors early on. This can result in improved survival rates, reduced economic losses, and increased profitability.
-
Barrier health control through continuous mucosal mapping of the skin, gills, and gut can reduce biomass risk by preventing disease, improving growth and survival, reducing the need for culling, and reducing the environmental impact of fish farming operations.

analysis & mapping
Continuous analysis & mapping involves ongoing monitoring and analysis of the mucus barrier health of fish populations. It includes regular sampling and analysis, as well as mapping of any changes or trends over time. The Continuous Analysis & Mapping solution provides real-time insights into the health of the fish population and allows for early detection of any issues or trends that could impact production. It also enables targeted interventions to be implemented in a timely manner, which can help to minimize the risk of disease outbreaks and mortality.
Start analysis is designed to provide a baseline assessment of the mucus barrier health of fish populations. It involves collecting and analyzing samples from the fish to identify any potential issues with the mucus barrier.
The Start Analysis solution provides a one-time snapshot of the current barrier health status and can serve as the foundation for further analysis.
