Oral delivery of protein antigens to Atlantic salmon
During recent years, the use of functional ingredients in aquaculture industry has increased dramatically. Accordingly, there are a broad range of functional feeds available for use in fish farming. As a result, there is ongoing research which focuses on developing oral delivery systems for fish. Va...
