Optimization of calcium oxide treatment against salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). A controlled laboratory study

Aquaculture Reports
Salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations pose a significant challenge to the salmonid farming industry. While most conventional water-treatment protocols primarily target lice at parasitic stages once attached to the fish, preventive measures ...

Chitin synthesis in the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis

, 2021
The salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis is a parasitic copepod that lives and feeds on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salmar). At present, this parasite is the number one threat to the Norwegian aquaculture. The density of salmons living together in aquaculture sea cages gives the salmon lice optimal conditions for infecting and reproducing.

Temperature-driven suitability shifts of sea lice species under climate change and the implications for salmon farming

Aquaculture Environment Interactions
Salmonids are the most valuable marine aquaculture family, worth approximately US$26.2 billion in 2022. However, the industry’s economic value is threatened by sea lice infestations, which can cause production losses and require expensive treatments to ...

Salmon louse labial gland enzymes: implications for host settlement and immune modulation

Frontiers in Genetics
Salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is a skin- and blood-feeding ectoparasite, infesting salmonids. While feeding, labial gland proteins from the salmon louse may be deposited on the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) skin.
