Microbiome dataset from a marine recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) for salmon post-smolt production in Norway.

A marine aquaculture recycling system (RAS) for the production of post-smolt was monitored for microbial community structures during the first year of operation. Sample material was obtained monthly from the biofilter biofilm carriers, the production water (tank 3), the fish skin (tank 3) and the tank 3 wall biofilm. Additional samples were taken during outbreaks of fish skin wounds, washing of the plant, UV filtration of the inlet water and from various wall biofilms.

Antibacterial treatment of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) experimentally challenged with Vibrio anguillarum, atypical Aeromonas salmonicida and Pasteurella atlantica.

Lumpfish is a novel farmed species used as cleaner fish for the removal of lice from farmed salmon. As often with new, farmed species, there are challenges with bacterial infections. The frequency of prescription of antibiotic agents to lumpfish is increasing, despite the lack of knowledge about appropriate doses, duration of treatment and application protocols for the various antibacterial agents.

Genomic Analysis of Provides Insight on Its Virulence Factors and Phylogeny and Highlights the Potential of Reverse Vaccinology in Aquaculture.

Pasteurellosis in farmed lumpsuckers, , has emerged as a serious disease in Norwegian aquaculture in recent years. Genomic characterization of the causative agent is essential in understanding the biology of the bacteria involved and in devising an efficient preventive strategy. The genomes of two clinical isolates were sequenced (≈2.

Pharmacokinetic Data Show That Oxolinic Acid and Flumequine Are Absorbed and Excreted Rapidly From Plasma and Tissues of Lumpfish.

This study examined the uptake, tissue distribution and elimination of the antibacterial agents oxolinic acid and flumequine in lumpfish ( L.) by use of LC-MS/MS following a single oral administration of 25 mg/kg fish given in feed. Lumpfish are increasingly used as cleaner fish for removal of sea lice on commercially farmed salmon.
