Serum samples were collected from wild cod of different sizes. Two samplings were undertaken: In the spring in relatively cold waters off the north west coast of Iceland and in the fall in relatively warm waters off the west coast of Iceland. Most of the parameters increased with increasing cod size, except the haemolytic activity which decreased. Higher serum protein levels were seen in cod sampled in the fall than in the spring. In cod sampled in the spring there was an apparent difference between specimens B75 cm in length and the larger specimens with respect to haemolytic activity and iron concentration. None of the parameters were influenced by the gender of the cod.

Antibody responses to Accepted 26 September 2008 V. anguillarum antigens in groups vaccinated by bathing and/or dipping were negligible, while responses Available online 14 October 2008 were observed in i.p. injected fish. Fish receiving i.p. injection in addition to bathing, showed significant antibody response. Both groups showed increased levels of natural antibodies while levels were low in Keywords: Cod other groups. Fish bathed or dipped showed higher mortality when challenged than untreated fish, while Fry fish that received a second vaccination showed the best protection.
