The genus Proteus has been rarely isolated from cultured fish. In this study, we reported Proteus vulgaris isolated from fish skin lesion of Black-spotted porcupine fish (Diodon hystrix). Identification of f vulgaris was performed by general biological test, including API 20E and API ZYM. The sensitivity of isolated strains to different groups of antibiotics was evaluated using the disc diffusion method. It showed that the isolate is sensitive to ciprofloxacin $(5{\mu}g)$, norfloxacin $(10{\mu}g)$, enrofloxacin $(5{\mu}g)$, cefotaxime $(30{\mu}g)$.

The objective of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of the pepsinolytic hydrolysate from the fish frame, Johnius belengerii, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. The J. belengerii frame hydrolysate (JFH) significantly suppressed nitric oxide (NO) secretion on LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages. Moreover, the JFH markedly inhibited the levels of protein and mRNA expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Furthermore, the LPS-stimulated mRNA expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha}$, interleukin $(IL)-1{\beta}$, and IL-6 was downregulated when cells were cultured with the JFH. The JFH significantly reduced the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and the translocation of nuclear factor-kappa B ($NF-{\kappa}B$) in macrophages. As the result, the JFH has the potential anti-inflammatory activity via blocking the JNK and $NF-{\kappa}B$ signal pathways.

은연어는 국내에서도 양식되고 있는 고급어종으로 생산량도 매년 증가추세에 있다. 스몰트까지 담수에서 사육한 은연어는 이후에 해수로 옮겨 사육하는데, 육상에서 해상으로의 운반과정에서 그물작업이나 가두기는 피할 수 없는 과정이다. 이로 인해 어류는 상당한 스트레스를 받아 해상사육 과정에서 폐사하기도 한다. 본 연구는 그물작업이 은연어의 스트레스에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 2시간의 그물작업을 한 전후에 1차 스트레스 반응의 지표로 코티졸의 농도를, 그리고 2차 반응지표로 혈당, 중성지방, 콜레스테롤, 젖산 및 K Na, Cl 등의 전해질 농도와 함께 ALT, AST와 LDH의 활성을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 이들 그물작업으로 인해 연어의 코티졸, 혈당 농도 및 LDH 활성은 유의적 (p<0.05)으로 증가하였기에 은연어가 상당한 스트레스를 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

우리나라에서 많이 양식하고 있는 주요 어종의 혈액 성분에 관한 기초 자료를 얻기 위하여, 저수온기(수온 $127^{\circ}C$)에 월동중인 조피볼락(Sebastes schlegeli), 농어 (Lateolarax japonicus), 넙치 (Paralichthys olivaceus), 돌돔(Oplegnathus fasciatus)과 함께 냉수성 어종인 은연어(Oncorhynchus kisutch)를 각 5-6마리씩 마취시키지 않은 상태로 꼬리 동맥에서 채혈하여 혈청 중의 총단백질(TP), 알부민(ALB),중성 지방(TG), 콜레스테롤(CHOL), 포도당(GLC), 리파제(LIPA), 나트륨(Na), 칼륨(K), 염소(Cl), 인(P), 아미노산전이효소(ALT, AST) 등을 혈액분석기로 분석하였다. TP 농도는 2.9-5.1g/dl의 수준이었으며, ALB 농도는 1.2-l.9g/dl의 수준이었다. A/G 비는 은연어가 1.1 정도로 가장 높았고 나머지는 0.5-0.6 정도로 비슷하였다. 지질 성분인 TG와 CHOL 농도도 어종에 따라 달라, 넙치는 TG 농도가 큰 대신에 CHOL 농도가 낮았으며, 농어는 반대로 TG농도가 낮은 대신에 CHOL 농도가 높았다. 두 지질 성분의 합은 넙치가 가장 많아 600mg/dl나 되었고, 농어나 조피볼락(약 400mg/dl), 돌돔이나 은연어(약 300mg/d1)의 순이었다. 혈당(GLC) 농도는 냉수성 어종인 은연어가 넙치에 비해 약 4배 가량 많아 61-76mg/dl이나 되었다. 한편 리파제(LIPA) 활성은 TG 농도와 정반대의 경향을 보여 은연어에서 가장 높았고, 넙치에서는 거의 확인되지 않았다. 무기질 중에서 Na, Cl과 K 농도는 160-204mmo1/l, 137-183mmol/l과 0.5-3.1mmol/l로 유사한 수준이었으나, P농도는 은연어나 조피볼락처럼 비교적 활동성이 강한 어종일수록 많았다. ALT 활성은 넙치가 가장 높았고, AST 활성은 은연어가 높았으며, AST 활성은 모든 어종에서 ALT 활성보다 높았다.

The swimming behavior of pacific bluefin tuna (Thunnus orientalis) in the offshore sea cage of the brass fishing net was observed and analyzed by imaging sonar techniques. The cultured fish spent most of the time swimming a circular path along the circular cage wall and continued to swim only clockwise direction without completely changing the swimming direction during the 23-hour observation time. In addition, changed swimming behaviors were divided into four categories: (a) the behavior of a large group temporarily swimming in the opposite (counter clockwise) direction, (b) the behavior of a small group temporarily swimming in a small circular path, (c) the behavior swimming small circular path in the center of the cage, and (d) the behavior of a large group swimming across the center of the cage. The maximum swimming speed of the cultured fish was from 3.5 to 3.8 TL/s, the mode was from 1.2 to 1.4 TL/s and the swimming speed during the day time was faster than at night time. It was confirmed the cultured fish swam not only on the surface but also near the bottom net of the cage during the day, but swam mainly at the upper part of the cage at night.

The causative agent for the tunic softness syndrome of the cultured ascidian Halocynthia roretzi from Jan 1999 to Feb 2009 was identified using virus isolation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The pathogenicity of the isolated virus MABV UR-1 strain was determined by experimental infection trials. The cytopathic effects was observed in CHSE-214 cell line at a level 5.1% (4/78) in normal ascidian and 1.8% in abnormal ascidian showing tunic softness syndrome signs. MABV gene was detected in 16.8% (18/107) of normal and 13.1% (5/38) of abnormal organisms by PCR. The ratio of MABV isolation and gene detection was similar level in normal and soft tunic diseased ascidian. Based on the VP2/NS junction region sequences, eight strains of virus isolated from ascidian, were included in the same genogroup with MABV which is originally isolated in wide ranges of marine fish and shellfish species. The UR-1 strain caused 60% mortality (36.5% mortality in control group) by immersion infection and 37% mortality (same mortality in control group) in injection infection indicating no significant differences in infected and control groups. These results suggest that ascidian can act as reservoir of the MABV, and this virus is not directly related with the ascidian mortality.

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a strong causative agent for high mortality in cultured and wild shrimps. From this study, the WSSV prevalence in marine organisms around shrimp farm as well as live feed-mediated transmission of WSSV to farmed shrimps were investigated. Based on nested-PCR method, WSSV was detected in wide array of marine organisms including Perinereis aibuhitensis (81.3% of prevalence rate, 13/16), Enedrias fangi (100%, 16/16), Ruditapes philippinarum (20%, 2/10), crab larvae (100%, 10/10), copepoda (30%, 3/10), Periophthalmus modestus (50%, 5/10), Pachygrapsus crassipes (10%, 1/10), Helice tridens (20%, 2/10) and Neomysis sp. (70%, 7/10). On the other hand, WSSV was not detected in Bullacta exarata, Uca arcuata, and Reishia clavigera. The percent prevalence of WSSV in wild shrimps, Fenneropenaeus chinensis was only 6%, but markedly increased up to 56% after a feeding trial using polychaete worms for one month, indicating that the live feed is one of significant carriers of WSSV to shrimps under practical farming conditions.

수산 양식 산업에서 발생하는 다제내성균에 의한 질병을 통제하기 위해 기존에 사용하던 수산용 의약품 대신 어류에 사용이 금지된 동물용 의약품 사용이 증가하고 있다. 그 중, 티아물린은 그람 양성균에 효과적인 항균성을 나타내기 때문에 일부 양식 어가에서 불법적으로 사용되고 있다. 불법적 사용을 막기 위해서는 티아물린의 수산동물에 대한 연구를 통해 수의사나 수산질병관리사의 처방전에 따라 수산생물의 치료행위가 수반되어야 한다. 연쇄구균에 감염된 강도다리에 대해 티아물린을 5, 10, 15 mg kg^-1의 농도로 근육주사 하였으나 치료 효과가 나타나지 않았고 15, 30 mg kg^-1의 농도로 경구투여 하였으나 마찬가지로 치료 효과가 미비하였다. 안전성 확인을 위해 30, 60 mg kg^-1의 농도로 근육주사와 경구투여한 경우 항생제의 독성에 의한 폐사가 발생하였고 따라서 연쇄구균에 감염된 강도다리에 티아물린으로 항생제 처리를 하는 것은 부적절하다고 할 수 있다.

To determine whether rearing density affects the hypermelanosis on the blind side (ambicoloration) of olive flounders Paralichthys olivaceus, we reared fry with an unpigmented non-eyed (blind) side in duplicate at densities of 150 individuals/$m^2$ (commercial production density: control) and 450 individuals/$m^2$ (high density group) for 90 days in 1-t dark-green fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP) tank. We recorded feed intake, feed conversion efficiency (FE), growth and survival, and measured the ratios of staining blind-side area (staining area) and ambicolored fish every 30 days. Daily feed intake (DFI), feed conversion efficiency (FE), growth rate, condition factors, and survival rate were calculated at the end of the experiment. Although the FE was higher in the high-density compared to the control, the two density groups showed similar feed intakes, growth, and survival. The ratio of staining area as well as the ratio of ambicolored fish significantly were significantly higher in the high-density group than in the control from days 30 to 60, but significantly increased and evened out by the end of the experiment (P<0.05). In conclusion, we determined that rearing density is not the main cause of the blind-side hypermelanosis, but found that increasing the rearing density can accelerate the ambicoloration in olive flounders.

To investigate effects of starvation on physiological changes, stress response, and survival of cobitid loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) exposed to sodium nitrite (NaNO₂), a 4-week experiment was conducted. Fewer fish survived in the starved group than those in the fed group during the experiment. Starvation resulted in growth retardation, leading to differences in body length and body depth between fed and starved groups. The fed gorup continued to grow and remained in good condition. Blood chemical analysis (plasma cortisol and glucose) showed significant differences in stress response to nitrite exposure between fed and starved groups (p < 0.05). These results suggest that all parameters employed in this study to assess effects of starvation with NaNO₂ stress are useful information for researching nutritional status in cobitid loach.
