sheathing, wrapping and sealing materials...
Juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were orally
immunized against the bacterium Flexibacter columnaris (formerly
Chondrococcus columnaris), the causative agent of columnaris disease
in fish, with a vaccine-food preparation containing formalin-killed
cells. Fish immunized for 1, 2, 3, and 4 months were challenged
