Effect of vaccination against yersiniosis on the relative percent survival, bactericidal and lysozyme response of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar
The bacterium Yersinia ruckeri serovar O1b causes yersiniosis in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar , in the southernhemisphere. Despite vaccination this disease has resulted in significant hatchery losses in the TasmanianAtlantic salmon aquaculture industry. A poor response to vaccination in juveniles, 1...

The bacterium Yersinia ruckeri serovar O1b causes yersiniosis in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar , in the southernhemisphere. Despite vaccination this disease has resulted in significant hatchery losses in the TasmanianAtlantic salmon aquaculture industry. A poor response to vaccination in juveniles, 15 g, has lead to theinvestigation of the suitability of the current formalin killed whole-cell vaccine Yersinivac-B. In this studytrypsin was added to the Yersinivac-B to expose the bacteria's protective O-antigen to make the vaccine moreimmunogenic. At six weeks post vaccination, the effect of Yersinivac-B and the novel trypsinated Yersinivac-Bvaccine on body mucus lysozyme and mucus and serum bactericidal activity of fish was determined over a48 h period following challenge with Y. ruckeri . Body and gill mucus lysozyme and mucus and serumbactericidal activity was also determined in surviving fish at 10 weeks post Y. ruckeri challenge. Following thechallenge period of 14 days the trypsinated Yersinivac-B fish demonstrated a significantly higher percentsurvival compared to the Yersinivac-B and control unvaccinated fish.
