Surveillance by the Use of Prescription Data
Antibacterial drug treatment in aquaculture during 1991–1996 was investigated using prescription data provided by the Norwegian Government Fish Inspection and Quality Control Service (NFCS). The majority of prescriptions (n = 5401) were for Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout (salmonids), while 383 pr...
