Bath Treatments With Emamectin Benzoate Control Dactylogyrideans Infecting Colossoma macropomum Gills Without Altering Physiology of This Host Fish. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Intensification of fish aquaculture worldwide has led to severe problems of diseases caused by parasitic dactylogyrideans. In this study, the anti‐dactylogyridean efficacy of treating Colossoma macropomum with baths of emamectin benzoate (EMB) was investigated for the first time, along with the effects of this treatment on the haematology and ...

The effect of environmental factors on transepithelial potential in a model Amazonian teleost, the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum): Implications for sodium balance in harsh environments. [PDF]
Abstract The tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum, G. Cuvier 1818) thrives both in the ion‐poor waters of the Amazon and in commercial aquaculture. In both, environmental conditions can be harsh due to low ion levels, occasional high salt challenges (in aquaculture), low pH, extreme PO2 levels (hypoxia and hyperoxia), high PCO2 levels (hypercapnia), high ...

Morphographic Changes in the Electrocardiogram of Colossoma macropomum Caused by Exposure to Manganese. [PDF]
Manganese (Mn2+) is an abundant chemical element in the earth’s crust and is present in soil, water, and industrial environments, including mining, welding, and battery manufacturing. Manganese (Mn) is an essential metal needed as a cofactor for many enzymes to maintain proper biological functions. Excessive exposure to Mn in high doses can result in a

Indirect Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay Based on Immunoglobulin Y Antibodies for the Evaluation of Humoral Immunity Against Flavobacterium oreochromis in Colossoma macropomum: A Preliminary Study [PDF]
Infections with Flavobacterium oreochromis pose risks to the production of Colossoma macropomum. Since no therapeutic treatment exists for this disease in this aquatic host, prophylaxis through vaccination is one method for disease control.

Eugenol as an efficacious anaesthetic for tambaqui, Colossoma macropomum (Cuvier)
Anaesthetics are important in fish culture to reduce handling stress and mortality. Eugenol is a promising anaesthetic because of its low cost, efficacy, safety margin for fish and lack of toxicity to humans. The goal of this study was to establish a protocol using eugenol as a fish anaesthetic for tambaqui Colossoma macropomum (Cuvier), and provide ...
