Growth of Piscirickettsia salmonis to high titers in insect tissue culture cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Piscirickettsia salmonis was grown in established insect, frog, and fish tissue culture cells. The yield of P. salmonis in Sf21 cells was up to 100 times that obtained in CHSE-214 cells, and virulence for Atlantic salmon was retained. The ceiling temperature for growth of P. salmonis in Sf21 cells was 24 degrees C.

Culture of Piscirickettsia salmonis on enriched blood agar.
Piscirickettsia salmonis is the etiologic agent of piscirickettsiosis, an economically significant disease of fish. Isolation of P. salmonis by culturing on fish cell lines has been the standard technique since the initial isolation of the organism. The ability to grow P. salmonis on artificial media would relieve facilities of the cost of maintaining cell lines, permit isolation at fish cultur...
متن کاملA Novel Liquid Medium for the Efficient Growth of the Salmonid Pathogen Piscirickettsia salmonis and Optimization of Culture Conditions
Piscirickettsia salmonis is the bacterium that causes Piscirickettsiosis, a systemic disease of salmonid fish responsible for significant economic losses within the aquaculture industry worldwide. The growth of the bacterium for vaccine formulation has been traditionally accomplished by infecting eukaryotic cell lines, a process that involves high production costs and is time-consuming. Recent ...

A nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed to detect genomic DNA of Piscirickettsia salmonis, the causative agent of an epizootic disease in salmonids. The nested PCR assay, which used general bacterial 16s rDNA primers in the flrst amplification reaction, and P salmonisspecif~c primers in a second reaction, allowed detection of less than 1 P salmonis tissue culture infect~ous dose ...

Piscirickettsia salmonis is a fish bacterial pathogen that has severely challenged the sustainability of the Chilean salmon industry since its appearance in 1989. As this Gram-negative bacterium has been poorly characterized, relevant aspects of its life cycle, virulence and pathogenesis must be identified in order to properly design prophylactic procedures. This report provides evidence of the...

Salmonid rickettsial septicemia (SRS) is a serious, infectious disease in Chilean salmon farming caused by Piscirickettsia salmonis, causing heavy losses to the salmonid industry. P. salmonis belongs to the Gammaproteobacteria, order Thiotrichales. SRS was first described in Chile in 1989, and infection with P. salmonis has since been described from a high number of fish species and in several ...
