DOWNLOAD EBOOK →There has been a continual expansion in aquaculture, such that total production is fast approaching that of wild-caught fisheries. Yet the expansion is marred by continued problems of disease. New pathogens emerge, and others become associated with new conditions. Some of these pathogens become well established, and develop into major killers of aquatic species. Diagnosis and Control of Diseases of Fish and Shellfish focuses on the diagnosis and control of diseases of fish and shellfish, notably those affecting aquaculture. Divided into 12 chapters, the book discusses the range of bacterial, viral and parasitic pathogens, their trends, emerging problems, and the relative significance to aquaculture. Developments in diagnostics and disease management, including the widespread use of serological and molecular methods, are presented. Application/dose and mode of action of prebiotics, probiotics and medicinal plant products used to control disease are examined, as well as the management and hygiene precautions that can be taken to prevent/control the spread of disease. This book will be a valuable resource for researchers, students, diagnosticians, veterinarians, fish pathologists and microbiologists concerned with the management of diseases of fish and shellfish.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Aquaculture Health Management: Design and Operation Approaches is an essential reference for the diverse aquaculture community. With the steadily increasing importance of healthy fish production and the expansion of the animal aquaculture industry to new geographic areas, new microbial and parasitic species with pathogenic potential continue to emerge. The book covers the broad spectrum of fish and shellfish health, the functional roles of pathogen emergence, and the impacts of nutrition and preventative medicine such as pre- and probiotics, as well as chemical treatments, relevant legislation and more. This reference takes a comprehensive approach to understanding overall fish health management, making it valuable to aquaculturists, practitioners in aquatic animal health, veterinarians and all those in industry, government or academia who are interested in aquaculture and fisheries and their sustainable futures. Presents the biosecurity measures used to prevent the spread of disease Discusses fish immunology to help readers understand preventive medicine for a healthy fish production Examines the latest scientific methods and technologies to maximize efficiencies for healthy fish production for farming Includes the most commonly researched fish, crustaceans and mollusks in aquaculture

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This publication serves as the laboratory manual for the "Introduction to Fish Health" shortcourse presented by the staff of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's La Crosse Fish Health Center located in Onalaska, Wisconsin. This course is intended to familiarize fish culturists and fish biologists with signs, causes, control and prevention of infectious and noninfectious diseases of cold, cool and warm-water fishes. Participants will be able to perform the following tasks upon completion of the course: 1) Learn basic fish anatomy and perform fish necropsies; 2) Recognize external and internal gross signs of fish diseases; 3) Become proficient at operation and care of microscopes; 4) Identify the more common fish parasites; 5) Isolate and culture bacterial disease organisms; 6) Prepare and stain slides for preliminary identifications of common bacterial disease organisms; 7) learn signs of viral diseases; 8) Calculate treatment levels and dosage rates; 9) Understand proper water quality management practices.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Bacterial Fish Diseases: Environmental and Economic Constraints will be useful for researchers and academics who need to understand the nature and consequences of bacteria-related disease in fishes. It has in-depth information on the complete genome of various bacterial species and identifies an essential number of virulence genes that affect the pathogenic potential of the bacteria in fish. Users will find the most relevant information derived from the available bacterial genomes concerning virulence and the diverse virulence factors that actively participate in host adherence, colonization and infection, including structural components, extracellular factors, secretion systems, iron acquisition and quorum sensing mechanisms. This reference is beneficial for understanding economic losses due to bacterial pathogens in fish fauna and its impact on the economy. It addition, it provides information on good aquaculture practices and how to scientifically manage aquaculture and fishery sectors. Presents bacteria-related diseases in fish species, highlighting problems associated with the culturing of fish Discusses pollution contamination in freshwater ecosystems to provide insights into the sustainable management of fish species Provides fundamental research concepts of fish health, along with practical research methods
