Skin mucus proteome map of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax).

Skin mucus is the first barrier of fish defence. Proteins from skin mucus of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) were identified by 2DE followed by LC-MS/MS. From all the identified proteins in the proteome map, we focus on the proteins associated with several immune pathways in fish. Furthermore, the real-time PCR transcript levels in skin are shown. Proteins found include apolipoprotein ...

Acute toxicity of ochratoxin-A in marine water-reared sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.).

The toxic effects of ochratoxin-A (OTA) on sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax L., have not been previously documented. A flow-through bioassay test system was conducted in two series and a total 180 of adult marine-reared sea bass was used to estimate the acute oral 96 h median lethal concentration (LC(50)) value and behavioral changes of OTA. The data obtained were statistically evaluated using Fi...

Is total serum protein a good indicator for welfare in reared sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax)?

Reared sea bass were submitted to six stressful situations: hyperoxia with or without hypercapnia, increased stocking density in an open flow or recirculating system, transfer to another tank and nodavirus injection. The potentially negative impact of these factors on the lives of sea bass was investigated by measuring 9 water parameters and 19 fish parameters including total serum protein (TSP...
