Protein content of brine shrimp - Artemia

I'm surprised to read the protein content of brine shrimp
is as high as it is - 6% dry, 60% live.

But still, 6% protein in a dry food is pretty low.

It also seems to be greatly influenced by diet:

" The highest level of protein of artemia fed on soya
powder diet is 66.88 percentage and the highest level
of fat belong to artemia fed on wheat bran diet is %12.6
so artemia fed on artificid diet has the highes nuturitionl value
of protein and fat in-acordance with harrested samples form
naturad biotops but, there is nat any considerable diffrence
in protein between the artemia fed on various diest.and
also the growth rate of artemia fed on arteficial diets
is more than the natural samples;rate. the result of
this experiment has come in following table"
