The Severity Of Side Effects After Salmon Vaccination Depends On The Antigen Composition

During the course of his doctoral studies, Stephen Mutoloki examined tissue reactions of salmon to oil-based vaccines and elucidated the components that play a significant role in the development of these reactions.
