Survival and virulence of Flavobacterium psychrophilum in water microcosms [PDF]
Flavobacterium psychrophilum, the causative agent of rainbow trout fry syndrome and cold water disease in salmonids, causes serious disease outbreaks in fish farms worldwide. The aim of the present study was to examine the survival capacity of F. psychrophilum in laboratory microcosms containing sterilised water under different environmental conditions

Laboratory Maintenance of Flavobacterium psychrophilum and Flavobacterium columnare
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2007AbstractBacteria in the genus Flavobacterium are highly heterogeneous and are comprised of pathogenic and non‐pathogenic species. They are found in a wide variety of environments that include fresh and marine water, soil, and ocean sediments. This unit focuses on laboratory maintenance of two important fish pathogens within this genus.

Production of viable cultures of Flavobacterium psychrophilum: approach and control.
Research in microbiology, 1999Although the fish pathogen Flavobacterium psychrophilum is a major source of concern in salmonid hatcheries, few studies have been conducted on its pathogenicity. Difficulties are often experienced when trying to control or quantify standard procedures for in vitro culture of the bacterium.

Growth of Flavobacterium psychrophilum in fish serum correlates with pathogenicity
Journal of Fish Diseases, 2011Abstract Flavobacterium psychrophilum isolates, obtained from ayu, Plecoglossus altivelis, three species of salmonids and two species of cyprinids in Japan, were used in this study. Bacteria were inoculated to serum prepared from ayu or red spotted masu trout (RSMT), Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae, and incubated at 18 °C for 24 h.
