Pathological changes in cultured channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus spontaneously infected with Streptococcus iniae.
The pathological changes present in channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus spontaneously infected by Streptococcus iniae are described. The most consistent gross findings were marked petechial hemorrhages of the skin and congestion of internal organs, particularly the liver, spleen and kidneys. Other features included color fading at the edge of fin rays, enteritis and ascites. Histological examin...
متن کاملAdjuvant Immune Enhancement of Subunit Vaccine Encoding pSCPI of Streptococcus iniae in Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus)
Channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) is an important agricultural fish that has been plagued by Streptococcus iniae (S. iniae) infections in recent years, some of them severe. C5a peptidase is an important virulent factor of S. iniae. In this study, the subunit vaccine containing the truncated part of C5a peptidase (pSCPI) was mixed with aluminum hydroxide gel (AH), propolis adjuvant (PA), and...
متن کاملChannel Catfish Ictalurus punctatus
We used a two-compartment, clearance volume-based model to examine rubidium and cesium Ž . pharmacokinetics in channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus after intravascular administration. We compared the apparent volumes of distribution in the central and peripheral compartments and the intercompartmental and whole-body clearances of both metals at 20.0 8C and 27.5 8C. Biological half-times of Rb we...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, expression and the adjuvant effects of interleukin-8 of channel catfish (Ictalurus Punctatus) against Streptococcus iniae
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) as an important cytokine involving in inflammatory and immune response, has been studied as effective adjuvants for vaccines in mammals. However, there are fewer reports about the characterization and adjuvant effects of IL-8 in fish. In this study, cloning and sequence analysis of IL-8 coding region of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) were conducted, mature IL-8(rtIL-...
متن کاملPlant Natural Compounds with Antibacterial Activity towards Common Pathogens of Pond-Cultured Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus)
The bacteria Edwardsiella ictaluri and Flavobacterium columnare cause enteric septicemia and columnaris disease, respectively, in channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus). Natural therapeutants may provide an alternative to current management approaches used by producers. In this study, a rapid bioassay identified plant compounds as potential therapeutants. Chelerythrine chloride and ellagic acid ...
