Oral immunoprophylaxis of finfish using alginate microencapsulation
Oral delivery is a potential solution to constraints associated with the immunoprophylaxismethods most prevalent in aquaculture: injection and immersion. However, oral immunogendelivery has produced inconsistent outcomes in fish. This is primarily attributed to antigendegradation, solutions to which...
