8.5.3.Sieving and washing
Drain the suspension of decapsulated cysts into a fine-mesh sieve and rinse immediately with seawater 6–10 times or until the smell of the hypochlorite is removed.
Decapsulated cysts may be fed directly to the cultured fish/ crustacean or stored in saturated brine solution at low temperature for future use.
