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.

Dr. Baskaralingam Vaseeharan is Professor and Department Head of Animal Health and Management at Alagappa University in Karaikudi, India. He obtained his PhD in Zoology at University of Madras and his DSc in Zoology at Periyar University, India. Dr. Vaseeharan’s lab study focuses on aquatic animal health biotechnology, crustacean molecular biology and genomics, molecular biology and immunology, and nanoscience and technology. His current research focuses on improving stress tolerance and disease resistance in aquatic animals to promote high yield in aquaculture and protect aquatic environments from toxic pollutants. Dr. Palmy Jesudhasan is Research Microbiologist at the USDA Agricultural Research Service. He obtained his PhD in Zoology at the University of Madras, India, and has 25 years of experience in animal vaccine production. His area of research focuses on controlling foodborne and poultry pathogens using vaccine, genomic, and proteomic approaches. He has a background in fish pathogenesis and is well experienced applying electron beam technology to control pathogens.
