Immune Response in Tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, Induced by the Surface Immunogenic Protein (Sip) of Streptococcus agalactiae
The main aim of this study was to demonstrate that the surface immunogenic protein (Sip) of the aquatic pathogen Streptococcus agalactiae is a potential candidate for vaccine development for Oreochromis niloticus. In this study, a Sip was identified. Alignment analysis indicated that the Sip protein was highly homologous with Sip proteins from other S. agalactiae isolated from humans (99%). SDS...
متن کاملA Study of Immune Response in Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Fed Levamisole Incorporated Diet
This study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of levamisole on the immune enhancement of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) against potential bacterial pathogens, Fish with weight of 98±5 g were randomly distributed into seven groups each at a rate of 20 fish per 300-L aquarium and fed on a diet containing 0.0, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250 or 1500 mg levamisole/kg diet for eight weeks. Aft...
متن کاملModified agglutination test for Pasteurella tularensis.
Several modifications in technique were incorporated into the standard agglutination test for Pasteurella tularensis. Reciprocal shaking of all tubes in a Kahn shaker was introduced to increase the rate of agglutination and quantity of agglutinated cell mass, making it possible to report preliminary results within 4 hr. Increased incubation time at a higher temperature was used to favor the rat...
متن کاملPRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF HUMORAL IMMUNE RESPONSE AGAINST MUSTARD GAS
One of the promising aspects of the immunological research on chemical war gas is to investigate the immunogenicity of some hazardous compounds such as mustard gas. Mustard gas is categorized as a "hapten" based on its physical and chemical properties. Haptenic chemicals which do not possess immunogenicity could be immunogenic experimentally when conjugated with a suitable protein carrier...
متن کاملTol2-mediated transgenesis in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is an important species in aquaculture and an excellent model system for laboratory studies. Functional genetic analysis using this species has been difficult because existing methods for producing transgenics are inefficient. Here we show that the Tol2 transposon system can be used to create transgenic tilapia with high efficiency. We constructed a line...
