The United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is seeking public comment in support of the Minor Use, Minor Species Act (2004). Syndel currently sells the only two FDA Indexed products for aquaculture, but they are only allowed to be used in ornamental finfish culture. The FDA is interested in whether the industry would support broadening the use of indexed products to specific subsets of food-producing fish species, which could include food-fish broodstock, early life stages and research fish. It is very important for the FDA to get input directly from the industry on this issue, and suggestions for talking points are available here. Please contact us at [email protected] if you are interested in providing a comment and we can provide you with additional information.

 

Deadline for comment submission is September 22nd, 2021.
