Detection of shrimp viral pathogens with a simple dot-blot enzyme immunoassay protocol
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Dot-blot nitrocellulose enzyme immunoassays (DB-NC-EIA) were developed for the detection of two shrimp viral pathogens, white-spot virus (WSV), and yellow-head virus (YHV). The assays utilized HRP-conjugated virus-specific ...
Birnaviruses of potential new serogroups isolated from tropical fish
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Over the last 10 years, viruses have been isolated from fish imported into Singapore and also from indigenous fish in Singapore. In 1993, the marble goby Oxyeleotris marmorata** underwent viral diagnostic investigation as ...
Viral infections in Australian freshwater crayfish
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Viral diseases of freshwater crayfish are poorly understood. To date, much of the research in this field has been conducted in Australia and/or on Australian freshwater crayfish species. Cherax tenuimanus, Cherax destructor ...
Emerging shrimp diseases and innovations to prevent their spread
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
The number of diseases affecting cultivated penaeid shrimp has increased steadily with expansion and intensification of large-scale commercial cultivation. In the 1990s the most serious losses have occurred from the emergence ...
Prevalence of yellow head virus in cultured black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) from selected shrimp farms in the Philippines
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
The prevalence and geographic distribution of Yellow head virus (YHV) in cultured Penaeus monodon in the Philippines was documented by Western blot assay. Fifty-three out of 219 samples (24.2%) were found to be positive ...
Epizootic ulcerative syndrome of fishes: rhabdovirus infection and EUS induction experiments in snakehead fish
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Rhabdoviral agents have long been found to be associated with Epizootic Ulcerative Syndrome (EUS) although the presence of granulomas caused by the fungus Aphanomyces invadans is currently used as the diagnostic criterium ...
Isolation of FV3-like iridovirus from a cutaneous ulceration disease of cultured frog, Rana tigrina Cantor, in Thailand
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
A new frog disease occurred in frog culture farms located in Central Thailand since early 1998. The disease affects 20-100% of the frog population in affected farms. Diseased adult frogs usually exhibit ulcerative lesions ...
VP2 protein carries neutralization epitopes in blotched snakehead virus (BSNV)
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
A new aquabirnavirus (BSNV, blotched snakehead virus) was isolated from a persistently infected warmwater fish cell line (BSN) developed from blotched snakehead (Channa lucius). Four polypeptides of molecular mass 112 ...
