Non-lethal detection of DNA from Cichlidogyrus spp. (Monogenea, Ancyrocephalinae) in gill mucus of the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus.
Infection of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus by monogeneans of the genus Cichlidogyrus is harmful. Currently, diagnosis of this infection is based on invasive techniques and the identification of isolated parasites by their morphology. To facilitate diagnosis, we have developed a non-lethal polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for detection of Cichlidogyrus spp. DNA in the gill mucus of O. n...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Novel Orthomyxo-like Virus Causing Mass Die-Offs of Tilapia
UNLABELLED Tilapia are an important global food source due to their omnivorous diet, tolerance for high-density aquaculture, and relative disease resistance. Since 2009, tilapia aquaculture has been threatened by mass die-offs in farmed fish in Israel and Ecuador. Here we report evidence implicating a novel orthomyxo-like virus in these outbreaks. The tilapia lake virus (TiLV) has a 10-segment,...
متن کاملIdentification of a virulence-related surface protein XF in piscine Streptococcus agalactiae by pre-absorbed immunoproteomics
BACKGROUND Since 2009, large-scale Streptococcus agalactiae infections have broken out in cultured tilapia farms in China, resulting in considerable economic losses. Screening of the surface proteins is required to identify virulence factors or protective antigens involved in piscine S.agalactiae infections in tilapia. Pre-absorbed immunoproteomics method (PAIM) is a useful method previously es...
متن کاملTwo in-House One-Step rRT-PCR Assays, Developed for Accurate and Rapid Molecular Identification of Newcastle Disease Virus, on the basis of SYBR Green and Specific TaqMan Probe
Background and Aims: Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is an avian paramyxovirus (A-PMV 1) and one of the major pathogens in poultries. Vaccination is intended to control the disease, nevertheless this virus is a growing threat to the poultry industry. So, early detection of the virus can prevent the spread of illness and avoid huge economic losses. Towards this goal, in this research, we develop...
متن کاملTitle : Influenza Virus Protecting RNA : an Effective Prophylactic and Therapeutic
1 Another influenza pandemic is inevitable, and new measures to combat this and seasonal 2 influenza are urgently needed. Here we describe a new concept in antivirals based on a 3 defined, naturally occurring defective influenza RNA that has the potential to protect against 4 any influenza A virus in any animal host. This protecting RNA (244 RNA) is incorporated 5 into virions which although no...
