Abstract

Experimental work done with the immunization against several fish pathogens is described. The agents studied included Flexibacter columnaris, Aeromonas salmonicida, Vibrio anguillarum and Infectious Hematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHNV). At the present, it appears that vaccines prepared against IHNV and bacterins against V. anguillarum show potential for use in aquaculture.
