A review of recent advances in using bacteriophages to treat the most common bacterial infectious diseases of cultured fish, shellfish and crustaceans. It concludes that the documented research supports phage therapy in aquaculture but that

University of Edinburgh is hiring a PhD researcher to isolate and characterise phages active at killing important aquaculture pathogens.

Professor Mathias Middelboe at University of Copenhagen is offering a postdoc position in phage-pathogen interactions and use of phages to control Flavobacterium pathogens in rainbow trout in aquaculture.

Aquaculture feed company Skretting and phage biotech company Proteon Pharmaceuticals are joining forces to trial phages to improve fish and shrimp health. Skretting will isolate strains of bacteria they'd like to target, and Proteon will de

Gerald Misol, Jr. (Hellenic Center for Marine Research, Greece) and colleagues characterized a novel jumbo phage with broad host range against Vibrio harveyi, a major aquaculture pathogen. They did a trial in shrimp, which showed that this

The Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture, an Indian research institute, has been developing phage cocktails for aquaculture. They've now transferred their phage technology to Salem Microbes Private Ltd, so it can be made available

The aquaculture industry continues to move toward phage therapy; here's a recent review published in Antibiotics by Justyna Kowalska (Proteon Pharmaceuticals) colleagues. Read the highlights in this article on The Fish Site.

Bacterial pathogens of fish cause major problems for fish farmers. Bernardo Veyrand‐Quirós (Instituto Politécnico Nacional, Mexico) and colleagues published a new paper in the Journal of Applied Microbiology showing that phage therapy incre
