Abstract:: Diseases caused by parasites are recognized as significant sources of mortality in wild fish populations. I assessed the impacts of multispecies parasitism on a threatened stock of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). A crucial prerequisite to this research was proper identification of parasites, which can be difficult for species lacking...

Abstract:: Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3), commonly known as koi herpesvirus (KHV), is a member of the Alloherpesviridae and is a deadly pathogen for koi and common carp, Cyprinus carpio. It causes severe gill necrosis and nephritis, dermal ulceration and hemorrhage, and mass mortality of up to 100% of affected fish. Fish...

Abstract:: Detection of both biological and chemical environmental toxicants is essential in the assessment of risk to human health. Cell-based biosensors are capable of activity- based detection of toxicity. Chromatophore cells, responsible for the pigmentation of poikilothermic animal, have shown immense potential as cell-based biosensors in the detection of a broad...

Abstract:: Opakapaka (Pristipomoides filamentosus) is a snapper (family Lutjanidae) native to the waters around Hawaii. Recent population declines of this commercially important species have increased interest in the culture of this fish. Survival of this fish through the larval period in culture has been consistently low, usually not exceeding 2%. The...

Abstract:: Little is known about the virulence factors of Renibacterium salmoninarum, the causative agent of salmonid bacterial kidney disease. The predominant protein produced by R. salmoninarum in broth culture or during infection is a 57/58 kDa protein (p57) which is associated with strain virulence. In this study monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to...

Abstract:: Bacterial contamination of food poses a great risk to human health worldwide. A chromatophore cell-based biosensor, utilizing B. splendens erythrophore cells, is an emerging technology that has shown potential to detect bacterial toxicity based on function-dependent mechanisms. Previous studies have investigated the response of erythrophore cells to foodborne pathogens, pesticides,...

Creator:: Peterson, Tracy Shawn
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...
