One of humanity's greatest challenges is ensuring food security in a sustainable production system in line with the One Health concept. Foods from aquaculture with high nutritional quality are decisive in producing animal protein. Brazil has enormous potential to leverage aquaculture exploitation due to its favorable climatic conditions and extensive water resources that allow the product…
Tilapia, Oreochromis ssp, is the second most cultivated fish in the world and the main specie produced in Brazil. The tilapia health is the main concern of the fish culture chain, and it has been significantly affected by emerging diseases caused by Francisella noatunensis subsp. orientalis (FNO) and, more recently, by the Infectious Necrosis of the Spleen and Kidney virus (ISKNV). The Fi…
In Denmark and Brazil close 50% of the adult population suffers from medium or severe over-weight and welfare diseases are increasing, but Brazil also has 10 mio people suffering from malnutrition. A change in dietary habits to more protein-rich food might reduce these health issues. Fish are a valuable protein source, but provide also vital fatty acids and minerals. Fish in natural water…

Flavobacterium columnare etiological agent that causes columnariasis in freshwater fish, is a fastidious bacterium, with the morphology of a long gram negative bacillus, the agent has its cosmopolitan distribution affecting the most diverse species of fish, both in natural populations and in fish aquaculture systems, causing countless economic losses for the sector. Due to its high distri…
Brazilian aquaculture production has increased significantly in the last two decades, mainly Tilapia Tilapia breeding. However, outbreaks of bacterial diseases have led to major economic losses; resulting in increased risks and uncertainties about the future of the activity and reduced investment. Given this situation, and the scarcity of effective therapeutic alternatives for the control…
The bacterium Flavobacterium columnare has a substantial impact on fish farming, being considered one of the greatest obstacles to the development of this activity worldwide, due to its virulence potential and high cost of treatment, which often becomes impracticable. The knowledge of the pathogenesis of F. columnare in Piaractus mesopotamicus is limited, being this one of the native fish…
The black pacu Colossoma macropomum is the second most produced fish species in Brazil, but it does not have a well-developed technological package and end up suffering with problems inherent to aquaculture. The use of probiotics has been encouraged by its effective prophylactic method that improves intestinal health, immune response, nutrient uptake and productive performance of the host…

Worldwide, one of the bacteria that most affects both free-living and production fish species at different temperatures, in the initial and adult stages is Flavobacterium columnare. The bacterium represents a substantial impact on fish farming, being considered one of the biggest obstacles to the development of this activity, due to its virulence potential, transmission between species, l…
Carps are the fourth most cultivated species of fish in Brazil, and the species Carassius auratus (goldfish) and Cyprinus carpio (koi carp) are the most important ornamental fishes produced in Brazil, with more than 3 million fishes per year. This production is endangered by infectious diseases. Worldwide, the viruses diseases are the most important for Cyprinids, and the most important a…
