Active immunization of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), 26g and above against Enteric Redmouth disease (ERM) to reduce mortality caused by the Hagerman Type I (serotype 01) strain of Yersinia ruckeri.The vaccine is indicated for use in fish that have been vaccinated by immersion with AquaVacTM ERM within the previous 4 to 6 months.
For uses, contra-indications and warnings and other information, read the product datasheet. Further information is also available on request from the manufacturer (adjacent tab).
Dosage and administration
The product is administered orally, to fish that have received vaccination with AquaVac ERM immersion vaccine 4-6 months previously.Vaccination is administered to fish of not less than 26g weight in a 10-day feeding program, in which feed pellets treated with vaccine are administered according to the following protocol:
| Day 1-5 | 0.01ml per fish per day |
| Day 6-10 | No vaccine feed |
| Day 11-15 | 0.01ml per fish per day |
| Total | 0.1ml per fish |
The precise bacterial dose taken up by individual fish cannot be calculated.
Preparation of vaccine-coated feed pellets.
The vaccine-coated feed is prepared as follows:
- The vaccine is kept at room temperature (20°C) for 1 hour before use to allow the vaccine to become less viscous. If any separation occurs, the bottle is shaken vigorously until the separated layers are completely dispersed.
- The feed pellets are turned in a mixer, e.g. concrete mixer and the vaccine is slowly poured or sprayed directly onto the pellets. If a sprayer is used, it should be set to deliver a coarse spray without risk of aerosol particle generation and the spray container must be completely emptied during the mixing operation.
- The pellets are mixed for at least 2 minutes after all the vaccine has been added.
- The prepared feed is kept for 1 hour before feeding to allow the vaccine to impregnate the pellets completely.
Vaccine treated feed should be used to complete the vaccine feeding regime within 19 days of being mixed with vaccine.
The time taken to achieve full effect of vaccination will depend on water temperature.
In fish vaccinated by immersion 4.5 months previous to oral vaccination, vaccine efficacy was demonstrated under field conditions at water temperatures of 10&dec;C, 21 days (210 degree days) after completion of the vaccine feeding protocol and protection was observed for the 3 month duration of the field trial.
