Dophavacc® for Aquaculture

Dophavacc vaccines for shrimps and fish (mainly trout, char, whitefish, and carps) are produced of inactivated bacterial antigens and composed with high quality adjuvants. We can produce Dophavacc vaccines as mono- or combined vaccines and these vaccines can be applied as injection, diving bath or orally.

Ripac-Labor has the permission to produce autogenous vaccines against the most relevant pathogens in fish. Main indications are furunculosis, gill disease and enteric red mouth disease.

Please contact us if you have specific questions regarding your desired indication or combination of pathogens.
