PCT No. PCT/GB92/01016 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 4, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 4, 1994 PCT Filed Jun. 5, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO92/21370 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 10, 1992A treatment of fish for infection by the organism Aeromonas salmonicida using either one or both of two components produced by a culture of the organism. The culture is treated to kill the organisms prior to use, preferably by treatment with formalin after the components have been produced. One of the components, only produced when the culture is grown under iron limiting conditions induces production of antibodies which cause death of the organisms when injected intraperitoneally into fish.
