Anotace
Fish farming, in seawater and in freshwater, in cages, tanks or
ponds, makes an ever-increasing and significant contribution to the
production of aquatic food in many regions of the world. During the
last few decades there has been significant progress and expansion
in the aquaculture sector, characterized by intensified production
and the exploitation of many new species. Aquaculture must be a
sustainable bio-production, environmentally as well as
economically. Disease prevention in order to reduce losses, and the
use of antimicrobials is crucial in this perspective. Vaccination
has, in a few years, become the most important method for disease
prevention in aquaculture, and effective prophylaxis based on
stimulation of the immune system of the fish is essential for
further development of the industry. This book provides general
information about disease prevention in fish by vaccination, as
well as specific descriptions of the correct use of vaccines
against the most important bacterial and viral infectious diseases
of aquatic animals. The book is written by some of the world's
leading experts in the subject, drawn from many countries where
aquaculture is a significant and expanding part of the economy.
Fish Vaccination is an encyclopedia of fish vaccinology for every
present and future aquaculturist. Professionals in the aquaculture
sector, including fish veterinarians and fish biologists, within
the industry, in scientific institutions and regulatory authorities
will all find a huge wealth of commercially important knowledge
within this book. Libraries in all universities where aquaculture,
biological and veterinary sciences are studied and taught should
have copies of this important book on their shelves.
