Aquaculture Pathophysiology

Aquaculture Pathophysiology provides a practical reference on the steadily increasing importance of aquatic animal infectious diseases. With the burgeoning expansion of the animal aquaculture industry to new geographic areas, new microbial and parasitic species with pathogenic potential will continue to emerge. This necessitates rapid identification of new pathogens to enable their control. The book is a systematic and concise resource for researchers, teachers, students, diagnostic laboratory staff, clinical veterinarians, aquaculture disease practitioners, biologists, farmers, and all those in industry, government or academia who are interested in aquaculture, fisheries and comparative biology. Identifies bacteria, fungus and other pathogens affecting aquatic food supplyDiscusses effects on anatomy, physiology, pathology and toxicologyIncludes effects on fish, crustaceans and mollusksRecommends preventative measures, including vaccination and biosecurityFeatures post infection solutions in pharmacology and pain management INDICE: 1.
