The quality of wild salmon and farmed rainbow trout from aquaculture, both packed in transparent vacuum-skin packaging, was followed during storage for 6 months in an illuminated freezer cabinet (product temperature -17 degrees C, half of the packs protected against light, and half of the packs fully exposed to light), combining (a) colour determination of the carotenoid-pigment flesh by tristimulus colorimetry, (b) determination of thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substances (TBA value), (c) carotenoid analysis and, at the end of the storage experiment, (d) sensory evaluation. Rancidity developed faster in steaks of wild salmon (TBA increased during 6 months of storage from 2.8 mumols malonaldehyde/kg flesh to 12.5 mumols/kg for light-protected packages, and to 17.6 mumols/kg for packages exposed to fluorescent light) as compared to steaks of farmed rainbow trout (TBA increased from 1.2 to 5.8 mumols/kg, independent of light exposure), a finding also confirmed by sensory evaluation. In both products, the carotenoid pigment was identified as astaxanthin; salmon steaks, the product more susceptible to developing rancidity, had the lower astaxanthin content (rainbow trout 9.1 mg/kg flesh, salmon 4.9 mg/kg, prior to storage). While the astaxanthin content remained virtually constant in salmon steaks during storage, the content decreased significantly in steaks of rainbow trout, an observation which suggests the role of astaxanthin as a sacrificial protector against radical processes.

Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) is a serious pathogen in the salmonid aquaculture industry and leads to economic losses in the world. This study aimed to develop a new oral DNA vaccine designed to protect rainbow trout against infection by IHNV. Fish were administered via the oral route by the attenuated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium as a carrier of pcDNA3.

Single-cycle viruses hold great promise as fish viral vaccines due to their high protective efficacy. Although the efficacy of the vaccine in olive flounder and rainbow trout has been proven through previous research, safety must be additionally proven considering the environment of use for commercialization. This study comprehensively assesses the safety of rVHSV-GΔTM and its impact on both the host and the surrounding environment, including the coastal habitat of nearby species and seawater.

Piscine orthoreovirus-1 and 3 (PRV-1, PRV-3) cause highly prevalent infection in cultured salmonids and can induce heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) resulting in economic losses in aquaculture. However, to date, PRV-1 and PRV-3 have withstood replication in continuous cell lines. In this study, we used beating heart cell cultures obtained from different developmental stages of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (RTC-L and RTC-A) and tested their ability to sustain replication of PRV-1 and PRV-3.

Climate change and biological invasions are affecting natural ecosystems globally. The effects of these stressors on native species' biogeography have been studied separately, but their combined effects remain overlooked. Here, we develop a framework to assess how climate change influences both the range and niche overlap of native and non-native species using ecological niche models.

There is growing interest in transcriptomic points of departure (tPOD) values from in vitro experiments as an alternative to animal test method. The study objective was to calculate tPODs in rainbow trout gill cells (RTgill-W1 following OECD 249) exposed to pesticides, and to evaluate how these values compare to fish acute and chronic toxicity data. Cells were exposed to one fungicide (chlorothalonil), ten herbicides (atrazine, glyphosate, imazethapyr, metolachlor, diquat, s-metolachlor, AMPA, dicamba, dimethenamid-P, metribuzin), eight insecticides (chlorpyrifos, diazinon, permethrin, carbaryl, clothianidin, imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, chlorantraniliprole), and OECD 249 positive control 3,4-dichloroaniline.
