| Study on the in vitro survival of the theront stages of Cryptocaryon irritans in different nutrient media, temperature and salinity showed that these three factors could influence then- life span. Theront of C. irritans had a longer mean life span in HBSS (62.40±23.02 hrs) and BBSS (46.64 ± 13.29 hrs) compared to control seawater medium (29.23 ± 6.81 hrs). The shortest mean life span was obtained from the MEME non-essential ammo acid medium ranging from 0.45 to 0.83 hrs. Out of 9 media, only 2 media (HBSS and BBSS) managed to prolong the life span of theront compared to the other 7 media (MEME, MEME non-essential amino acid, L-15 with 5% serum, L-15 with 10% serum, tissue homogenate (gills, scale & mucus, fin and muscle). Tukey HSD analysis showed that... |
