Summary

At the start of the project we had already developed, with NRDC funding, the world's best panel of mAbs for the rapid identification of Vibrio pathogens. The hybridomas producing these mAbs were to be maintained frozen in liquid nitrogen throughout the new project and negotiations made with the new FIRDC for their transfer to commercial use.

An integral part of the new research project was to identify fish eggs using mAbs. It was considered by fisheries scientists and managers to offer significant opportunity for understanding the biology of commercially important species. Unambiguous identification of eggs would enable data to be gathered, or inferences to be drawn, on reproductive output, spawning location, survival of eggs, dispersal of eggs, etc. There were no methods available for the identification of eggs of most fish species. Only a few relatively common and well-known species were identifiable in which the eggs had exceptional characteristics (eg. special pigmentation, size or disposition of internal features). The aim was to develop methods to identify the eggs of some commercially important fish species, particularly the yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and barramundi (Lates calcarifer). The direction was followed, partly in response to requests from the previous FIRDC.

Summary

At the start of the project we had already developed, with NRDC funding, the world's best panel of mAbs for the rapid identification of Vibrio pathogens. The hybridomas producing these mAbs were to be maintained frozen in liquid nitrogen throughout the new project and negotiations made with the new FIRDC for their transfer to commercial use.

An integral part of the new research project was to identify fish eggs using mAbs. It was considered by fisheries scientists and managers to offer significant opportunity for understanding the biology of commercially important species. Unambiguous identification of eggs would enable data to be gathered, or inferences to be drawn, on reproductive output, spawning location, survival of eggs, dispersal of eggs, etc. There were no methods available for the identification of eggs of most fish species. Only a few relatively common and well-known species were identifiable in which the eggs had exceptional characteristics (eg. special pigmentation, size or disposition of internal features). The aim was to develop methods to identify the eggs of some commercially important fish species, particularly the yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and barramundi (Lates calcarifer). The direction was followed, partly in response to requests from the previous FIRDC.
