Vaccines in Aquaculture: Development, Production, and Applications acknowledges the crucial part that aquatic vaccines play in disease control for the sustainable future of aquaculture. Vaccination progression has become the most important method for disease prevention and effective prophylaxis based on stimulation of the immune systems of key aquaculture species. This book provides detailed information about the evaluation, mass production, and commercialization of aquatic animal vaccines, as well as specific descriptions of the correct use of vaccines against the most important microbial diseases of aquatic animals.

Written by a leading expert in aquatic animal health biotechnology, this book is systematically organized for effective delivery of its major themes. The book starts by providing an overview on aquaculture vaccine history, evolution, and characteristic features before describing the various types of vaccines and vaccination methods in the industry. Latter sections discuss aquatic vaccine development, recent developments and challenges, mass production, and commercialization. The book concludes with an examination of the challenges associated with large-scale production, commercialization, and ethical and legal considerations.
