Materials and Methods： A research was performed in 1-inch long tilapia stimulated its immunity by infection with Flavobacterium columnare, VETSV01. Pathogenesis of 0.2 mL Flavobacterium columnare, VETSV01 in the range of 10^2-10^8 mL-1 fish^-1 was injected into its intraperitoneal injection and intramuscular injection and suitable concentrations were screened to obtain for further experiment in a late restage. Based on data of minimal concentration, 50% mortality rate was caused and it was found the concentration of 108 mL^-1 fish^-1 caused 100% mortality rate and no lethal rate was found in other concentrations. Afterwards, efficacy of bio-floc sediment on survival rate of Tilapia infected with Flavobacterium columnare, VETSV01 was examined. Completely randomized design was employed and experiments were divided into 4 treatment： （1） contxol-commercial feed only, （2） commercial feed attached with dried bio-floc, （3） commercial feed attached with bio-floc and beta-glucan and （4） commercial feed attached with bio-floc and nucleotide. Experiment design was performed as 3 replicates with 10 fishes/replicates in 24 inch glass aquarium. Analysis of difference was performed and determination of mean differences of mortality rate mad relative percent survival was done through Duncan＇s Multiple Range Test （p 〈 0.05）. Results and Discussions： It was demonstrated feeding tilapia with commercial feed in combination with dried bio-floc with or without supplementation of 2 immuno-stimulants could lead to 100% survival rate and 100% relative percent survival rate and it was statistically significant different （p 〈 0.05） compared to control group. Bio-floc product supplemented with beta glucan or nucleotide could effectively stimulate immunity against Flavobacterium columnare, VETSV01 and such high effective performance is viewed as a promising potential product to be further developed and practically employed for sake of aquaculture industry in the near future.展开更多
