In vitro and in vivo assessment of the effect of antiprotozoal compounds isolated from Psoralea corylifolia against Ichthyophthirius multifiliis in fish [PDF]
Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, an external fish parasite, often causes significant economic damage to the aquaculture industry. Since the use of malachite green was banned, the search of alternative substance to control I.

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (White Spot) Infections in Fish
Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ich) is a protozoan parasite that can cause severe losses in aquaculture and aquariums. It is introduced via new fish, substrates, plants, or equipment.

Immune response to Ichthyophthirius multifiliis and role of IgT. [PDF]
AbstractThe parasitic ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis causes white spot disease in freshwater fish worldwide. The theront penetrates external surfaces of the naïve fish where it develops into the feeding trophont stage and elicits a protective immune response both at the affected site as well as at the systemic level.

Stress response in rainbow trout during infection with Ichthyophthirius multifiliis and formalin bath treatment [PDF]
Background. Ectoparasitic infections of fish are considered to be stress inducing. However, only a few studies have addressed this topic. In addition, formalin bath treatment of rainbow trout is a generally applied method of controlling ectoparasites ...

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis [PDF]
New vaccine candidates were identified targeting the one celled parasite Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, which negatively affects aquaculture freshwater fish productions all over the world. In silico selection with the use of artificial intelligence identified several potential vaccine candidates and three of these were recombinantly expressed using E ...

A Computational Strategy for Identifying Self-Assembling Food-Derived Molecules for Antiparasitic Nanotherapy. [PDF]
An integrated computational screening strategy identified ursolic acid (UA) and 18β‐glycyrrhetinic acid (18βGA) as a self‐assembling food‐derived molecular pair. The resulting carrier‐free nanoparticles (UA‐18βGA) showed synergistic antiparasitic activity, reduced combined toxicity, and host‐protective anti‐inflammatory effects in zebrafish and murine ...
