Cryopreservation of lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus (Linnaeus, 1758) milt
This study has established a successful protocol to cryopreserve lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus (Linnaeus, 1758) milt. Three cryosolutions were tested based on Mounib’s medium; the original medium including reduced l-glutathione (L-Glu), the basic sucrose and potassium bicarbonate medium without L-Glu, or with hen’s egg yolk (EY).

Exophiala angulospora infection in hatchery‐reared lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) broodstock [PDF]
AbstractSamples from moribund lumpfish were collected in a marine hatchery in Scotland in 2015. Black nodules were noted on the skin, and gills and fungal hyphae were extensively distributed in musculature and internal organs. Multifocal chronic inflammatory lesions displaced structures in all affected organs.
