Creator:: Watanabe, Robin Aiko
Abstract:: The effectiveness of tangential flow filtration (TFF) for recovery of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) and infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) from large volumes of water was evaluated. In laboratory studies, virus recovery from IHNV-seeded water following concentration by TFF was approximately 13%. However, addition of 0.1 and 1% FBS...

Creator:: Piacentini, Stephen Carl
Abstract:: Erythrocytic inclusion body syndrome (EIBS), a viral disease of salmon, was investigated. Reliable artificial infections were established in coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) via intraperitoneal injection of homogenized kidney, spleen, and blood from naturally infected animals. By examining the exposed fish periodically for viral inclusion bodies and hematocrits, the disease progression...

Creator:: Roberti, Kellee Ann
Abstract:: The development of an effective infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) vaccine depends on a better understanding of the antigenic structure and variation among isolates. Three objectives to elucidate this were: (1) to generate a panel of antigenic derivatives of the IHNV glycoprotein by monoclonal antibody-mediated selection of neutralization-resistant variant viruses,...

Creator:: Shanks, Carol A.
Abstract:: Erythrocytic inclusion body syndrome (EIBS) was artificially established in selected stocks of juvenile fall and spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), chum salmon (0. keta), coho salmon (0. kisutch), Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), and rainbow trout (0. mykiss). Adult spring chinook salmon were also artificially infected with the EIBS virus. Adult...

Creator:: Drongesen, Jeffrey Edward
Abstract:: Detection and treatment of bacterial kidney disease (BKD) was investigated. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the quantitative, fluorescent antibody technique (QFAT) that is used to detect, identify, and quantify both typical and 'bar form' Renibacterium salmoninarum cells. Smears of kidney tissue from naturally and artificially infected salmonids, both with and...
