Assessment of the quantitative fluorescent antibody technique and chemotherapy for the detection and control of Renibacterium salmoninarum in salmonid fishes

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...

Physical and functional characterization of soluble protein antigen(s) produced by Renibacterium salmoninarum

Creator:: Turaga, Prasad S. D.
Abstract:: Renibacterium salmoninarum produces bacterial kidney disease (BKD) in salmonid fish. Soluble antigen(s) (SA) produced by the bacterium was characterized by physicochemical, functional and immunological methods. The molecular weight determination by SDS-PAGE analysis of SA yielded 14 different molecular weight species. Seven of these species were prominent, 57 kd protein being...

Viruses infecting salmonid fishes from Oregon : A. The occurrence and distribution of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus. B. The development of an attenuated strain of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) for immunization of salmonids

Creator:: Tebbit, Guy Lee
Abstract:: The occurrence and distribution of fish viruses in Oregon were determined by the examination of anadromous and fresh water salmonids. Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) was isolated and identified from asymptomatic adult coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and chinook (0. tshawytscha) salmon returning to the Columbia River system. Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus...

A study of corynebacterial kidney disease of salmonid fishes

Creator:: Rowse-Eagle, Debra H.
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to compile a comprehensive review of the literature and to gain a better understanding of the host-parasite relationship in corynebacterial kidney disease of salmonid fishes. An indirect fluorescent antibody technique was developed which allowed differentiation of intra- and extracellular bacteria. This technique was used in combination...

Virulence factors of Aeromonas salmonicida and their interaction with the salmonid host

Creator:: Rockey, Daniel D.
Abstract:: Selected secreted and cellular virulence factors of Aeromonas salmonicida were examined. A protocol was developed for the separation of two secreted proteases (P1 and P2 protease), and a trout erythrocyte specific hemolysin (T-lysin) from supernatants of cultures of the bacterium. Distinctions between the proteases were demonstrated using molecular weight determinations,...

Structural and functional analysis of the 57 kDa protein produced by the fish pathogen, Renibacterium salmoninarum

Creator:: Wiens, Gregory D.
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...

Erythrocytic inclusion body syndrome : a viral disease of salmonid fish

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...

Cytophaga psychrophila, the causative agent of bacterial cold-water disease in salmonid fish

Creator:: Holt, Richard Allen
Abstract:: Morphological, cultural, biochemical and serological characteristics of 33 bacterial strains, thought to be similar to Cytophaga psychrophila, the causative agent of bacterial cold-water disease were compared. Bacterial strains identified as C. psychrophila were obtained from diseased salmonids collected at widely separated geographic locations, and from fish with pathological signs different...
