Trypanosomiasis causing mortality outbreak in Nile tilapia intensive farming: Identification and pathological evaluation

2018-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Trypanosomes are flagellated parasite protozoans that prey especially on wild fish and have recently been described affecting fish in aquaculture. The present study was carried out during a mortality outbreak of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus reared in net cages. Samples of 10 fish in the finishing phase showing unspecific signs, such as anorexia, skin darkening and gill paleness, were analyzed using hemogram,...
