Vaccines in Aquaculture: Development, Production, and Applications acknowledges the crucial part that aquatic vaccines play in disease control for the sustainable future of aquaculture. Vaccination progression has become the most important method for disease prevention and effective prophylaxis based on stimulation of the immune systems of key aquaculture species. This book provides detailed information about the evaluation, mass production, and commercialization of aquatic animal vaccines, as well as specific descriptions of the correct use of vaccines against the most important microbial diseases of aquatic animals.Written by a leading expert in aquatic animal health biotechnology, this book is systematically organized for effective delivery of its major themes. The book starts by providing an overview on aquaculture vaccine history, evolution, and characteristic features before describing the various types of vaccines and vaccination methods in the industry. Latter sections discuss aquatic vaccine development, recent developments and challenges, mass production, and commercialization. The book concludes with an examination of the challenges associated with large-scale production, commercialization, and ethical and legal considerations.

Addresses the evaluation and mass production of aquatic animal vaccine productionOutlines the correct applications and uses of aquatic animal vaccinesDiscusses commercialization methods for novel vaccines

Aquaculture with Artificial Intelligence: Emerging Technologies for Sustainable Industry Development will play in aquaculture and aquaculture-adjacent sectors in the coming years. The aquaculture industry faces various challenges, including environmental concerns, disease management, and resource optimization, and integrating AI into aquaculture practices can improve industry efficiency, sustainability, and overall productivity. This book explores how AI technologies such as machine learning for predictive analytics, computer vision for monitoring aquatic environments, and robotics for automated tasks can streamline various aspects of aquaculture requiring monitoring, management, and decision-making. Aquaculture with Artificial Intelligence: Smart Aquaculture is co-authored by a diverse team of experts bridging disciplines in aquaculture, aquatic immunology, biotechnology, and artificial intelligence. Early chapters provide a thorough introduction to the aquaculture industry to provide critical context for all audiences. Central chapters explore machine learning, bioimaging, drone technology, bioengineering, OMICs technologies, big data, and other AI technologies emerging in aquaculture. Global case studies highlight the practical applications of AI to various aspects of aquaculture operations, including automated feeding, water quality monitoring, disease protection, and precision aquaculture. The book concludes with a look to the future of the industry, research gaps, and opportunities for continued research. This is an essential read for aquaculturists, environmental scientists, data scientists, and roboticists interested in the intersection of aquaculture and AI.Provides a comprehensive introduction to aquacultureExplores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in aquacultureIncludes case studies of global aquaculture operations and research projects successfully applying AIHighlights practical applications for automated feeding, water quality monitoring, disease protection, and precision aquacultureIllustrates how AI can optimize resource utilization, reduce waste, and minimize ecological impacts

Alternatives to Antibiotics in Sustainable Aquaculture explores issues associated with antimicrobial use and available alternatives to support aquatic animal health. The book unveils the issues related to antimicrobial use and offers alternative approaches to foster a more sustainable global aquaculture industry. These approaches encompass natural-based antibiotic substitutes, antimicrobial peptides, probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics, as well as immunostimulants and feed additives. Additionally, chemical alternatives, vaccines, bacteriophages, quorum quenching, and antibiofilm approaches are explored. The future of aquatic animal health is covered through the lens of novel technologies, including genomic and metabolomic approaches, nanotechnology, and nanobubble methods.This book provides insightful knowledge for individuals from both academic and private sectors, as well as policymakers and regulators. The knowledge gathered in this book is intended to positively guide aquaculture supply chains toward a sustainable transformation of the industry.Reveals the problems related to antimicrobial use and resistance (AMU/AMR) in aquacultureHighlights current alternatives to antibiotic approaches to ensure aquatic animal healthDiscusses future directions for aquatic animal health in sustainable aquaculture
