Anti-parasitic efficacy of green-synthesized silver nanoparticles on Argulus siamensis: An ectoparasite of fish and their effect on the expression of ion channel genes
2025-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Argulosis, a serious fish disease caused by the crustacean ectoparasite Argulus, results in considerable losses to the global aquaculture industry. This study evaluated the in vitro anti-parasitic efficacy (AE%) of synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using an aqueous leaf extract of Azadirachta indica (neem) against the adult and copepodid stages of Argulus siamensis. The biosynthesized AgNPs were characteriz...
