Detection and transmission of Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium chelonae in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

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...

Impacts of multispecies parasitism on coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in Oregon

Creator:

Ferguson, Jayde A.

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...

Pseudoloma neurophilia in the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Consequences of Infection on Neurobehavioral and Biomedical Research using a Burgeoning Model Organism

Creator:

Spagnoli, Sean

Abstract:

Since its inception as a laboratory animal in the early 1970s, the zebrafish has proven itself a rising star in the world of comparative biomedical sciences due to its short generation time, ease of care, external fertilization, and transparent larvae. In a very few decades, the zebrafish has been utilized...
