Summary

This is the final report for two Fishing Research and Development Grants, 1987-058 and 1988-029.

Both grants provided funds for research on Ciguatera poisoning and Ciguatoxin. Experimental studies were conducted on fish and mammals.

Both grants are specifically related to ciguatera poisoning and both will be discussed in this combined report. The format of the report is such that it gives an overview of ciguatera based on the literature, a general methods section in which the extraction and partial purification of CTX from fish is described and then sections that address how each of the specific research objectives of the initial proposals were met. At the end of the report significant outcomes and directions for future research are presented.

Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: commercial AGD and salmon health project

Prior to this project there had been investigations into some potential candidate amoebicides, with little success except for the possibility of oxidative disinfectants such as chloramine-T. This project has since tested a number of amoebicides using a progressive approach of in vitro...

Improving the availability of safe and effective veterinary medicines for Australia's seafood industry

In this project we documented how off-label use in aquaculture can be efficiently and effectively regulated. We did this by describing South Australia’s off-label regulatory framework (the off-label framework) used by the Department of Primary Industries and Regions (PIRSA). PIRSA uses the...

Understanding blood flukes infecting Southern Bluefin Tuna

Cardicola forsteri is the dominant blood fluke species detected in farmed Southern Bluefin Tuna in 2018. Our results have shown that traditional methods (heart flush and gill microscopy) were limited to detecting adults or eggs. Comparisons of currently used diagnostic methods showed that...
