Affinity of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis theronts to light and/or fish
Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 1991Summary The influence of light and/or fish on the behaviour of the infective stage of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis was investigated in an aquarium (30 × 10 × 7,5 cm) divided by a net into two equal compartments in the following experiments: 1. illuminated versus darkened compartment, 2.

Host responses against the fish parasitizing ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis
Veterinary Parasitology, 2001Recent studies have shown that fish are able to mount protective immune responses against various parasites. One of the best characterized parasite-host system in this context is the ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ich) parasitizing a range of freshwater fishes.

Localized cellular responses to Ichthyophthirius multifiliis: Protection or pathogenesis?
Parasitology Today, 1994The ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis is an economically important parasite in aquaculture as well as in the ornamental fish trade. The parasite has been well studied and details of life cycle, host response and pathogenesis have been characterized.

The I‐antigens of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis are GPI‐Anchored Proteins
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2001ABSTRACT. The parasitic ciliate Ichthyophthirius multifiliis has abundant surface membrane proteins (i‐antigens) that when clustered, trigger rapid, premature exit from the host. Similar antigens are present in free‐living ciliates and are GPI‐anchored in both Paramecium and Tetrahymena.

The Journal of Protozoology, 1992
ABSTRACT Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, a parasitic ciliate of freshwater fishes, was found to have surface antigens (Ag) which elieited immobilizing antibodies (Ab) when injected into rabbits. An effort was made to purify and characterize these Ag (referred to as immobilization Ag) because of their potential role in protective immunity in fishes. Mice

Immune response of channel catfish to ciliary antigens of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 1988Channel catfish were rendered immune to the protozoan pathogen, Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, by exposure to sublethal infections. Sera from test animals were then screened for antibodies against the parasite using enzyme-linked immunoassays. Ichthyophthirius cilia were blotted onto nitrocellulose filters and reacted with catfish sera, followed by ...

In Vitro Effect of some therapeutants on Ichthyophthirius multifiliis
Journal of FisheriesSciences.com, 2010White spot is an important parasitic disease causing serious economical loses in cultured freshwater fish and the causative agent, Ichthyophthirius multifiliis is an ectoparasitic ciliate.In the present study, in order to determine effective therapeutants on different stages of I.

[Reproduction of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ciliata, Ophryoglenidae)].
Parazitologiia, 1986A case of reproduction of Ichthyophthirius multifiliis in the superficial tissues of larvae and fry of Amur wild carp is described. At a temperature of water from 28 to 29 degrees trophonts of Ichthyophthirius encysted on fishes. Inside cysts repeated cell division occurred but this process did not result in swarm spores formation.

Infection and immunity against Ichthyophthirius multifiliis in zebrafish ( Danio rerio )
Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2016Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, causing white spot disease, is a serious pathogen in aquaculture as well as for the ornamental fish industry. In carp, channel catfish and rainbow trout the immune responses against the parasite have been partly elucidated and these species are able to acquire a high level of immunity against the disease.
