Iconic Project : Fish Health & Diagnostics

• CADV has been instrumental in developing autogenous vaccines which have helped boost the survival rate of food fish like seabass for local fish farms in Singapore.
• CADV has also ventured overseas to Vietnam to help develop vaccines for the catfish industry. Laboratory trials held in Vietnam have shown promising results, and field trials are being planned to test the efficacy various vaccines.
• CADV holds a Licence to Possess Veterinary Biologics for R&D work related to fish vaccines development. The license is granted by NparksSingapore.

Mangrove Crab Grading Techniques

• A key problem affecting seafood restaurants in Singapore is the lack of good meaty crabs. Some restaurants resort to use of lean crabs but this leads to customer complaints, reputation damage and loss of business. Current methods used to grade crabs are inadequate as they are based on subjective judgement.
• This innovation is a Singapore developed technology that for the first time introduces a more scientific approach towards mud crab grading. Each crab can be graded in just 3 seconds using our strategy. The innovation improves seafood quality control in our iconic seafood restaurants and the aquaculture industry.
