Anthelmintic Effect ofBacillus thuringiensisStrains against the Gill Fish TrematodeCentrocestus formosanus [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2016 Parasitic agents, such as helminths, are the most important biotic factors affecting aquaculture, and the flukeCentrocestus formosanusis considered to be highly pathogenic in various fish species. There have been efforts to control this parasite with chemical helminthicides, but these efforts have had unsuccessful results. We evaluated the anthelmintic
