Creator:: Sanders, Justin L.
Abstract:: The microsporidian parasite, Pseudoloma neurophilia, is the most commonly diagnosed infectious disease in laboratory populations of the zebrafish, Danio rerio. Infections by P. neurophilia are generally subclinical, however, they can become acute either incidentally or due to experimental immune suppression. Non-protocol induced variation can confound results in laboratory experiments using...

Abstract:: Mycobacteriosis is a common disease of laboratory zebrafish (Danio rerio). Different infection patterns occur in zebrafish depending on mycobacterial species. Mycobacterium marinum and M. haemophilum produce virulent infections associated with high mortality, whereas M. chelonae is more wide spread and not associated with high mortality. Identification of mycobacterial infections to...

Creator:: Norris, Lauren J.
Abstract:: Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are one of the most commonly used animal models in biomedical research. Zebrafish resource facilities, like the Zebrafish International Resource Center (ZIRC) in Eugene, Oregon, are the main providers and keepers of numerous zebrafish wild-type, mutant, and transgenic lines. Although ZIRC maintains live zebrafish at various life...

Abstract:: Pre-spawning mortality (PSM) presents a major problem for population recovery of spring Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Willamette River basin. In certain reaches and years, PSM has exceeded 90%. Histology has been used as the primary diagnostic method to investigate PSM in the Chinook Salmon, and a collection of...

Creator:: Kreul, Taylor G.
Abstract:: As the zebrafish (Danio rerio) becomes increasingly popular as a biomedical model for various laboratory studies, the need for efficient and accurate diagnostic assays for the pathogens that infect it has grown. The most common pathogen infecting laboratory zebrafish is Pseudoloma neurophilia, a microsporidium that has been known to cause...
