This project will contribute to work that will fulfill critical CRC Milestones. There is potential that the work will result in a direct increase in the value of Australian oyster production by value adding existing products.

The Australian Seafood CRC has previously identified building capacity in the area of seafood processing is a high priority for the CRC. This project will make use of and contribute to the collaborative links (to be developed) with the UK based Grimsby Institute.

The project will develop Australian capability and capacity in value adding of products that will be applicable to many areas of the CRC. This will be critical to the Australian seafood processing industry being able to deliver innovative seafood products which are of high eating quality.
