You may be interested in my other thread like this:
mcarroll's Favorite Chemistry Links

Also the links to our relevant forums:
This post is pretty much just random, cool, related background links...about fish!

Hopefully some stuff you haven't seen before! :)

Many of these links will refer to species of fish you may not be familiar with, but there are always some relevant pieces, so click the links! :)

A lot of this will be from the U. of Florida IFAS Extension - a great resource!

Understanding Stress In Fish



Understanding Fish Immunity and Resistance

Antimicrobial Polypeptides, Piscidins and Histone-Like Proteins, in Important Aquacultured Fish and the Effect of Nutrition on their Expression and Susceptibility to Infection in Hybrid Striped (Sunshine) Bass (Morone saxatilis male x M. chrysops female) (PDF Available)

Application of antimicrobial polypeptide host defenses to aquaculture ...

The Intestinal Microbiota and Susceptibility to Infection in Immunocompromised Patients (PDF Available)
When considering stresses from catching, shipping and handling, possible application of medications and antibiotics at every stage, plus everything else that can happen on the way to our tanks, it might be sensible for us to consider our fish to be immunocompromised when we get them.
Impact of acute stress on antimicrobial polypeptides mRNA copy number in several tissues of marine sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax)
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4485384/
Sociomicrobiology and pathogenic bacteria (PDF Available)

Fish Immunology. The modification and manipulation of the innate immune system: Brazilian studies (PDF Available)

The Interplay between the Intestinal Microbiota and the Immune System (PDF Available)

Canned Searches:
"intestinal microbiota" "susceptibility to infection"
"intestinal
microbiota" "susceptibility to infection" aquaculture

These two Google Scholar searches make an interesting comparison for anyone on the fence whether non-fish research may apply. ;)


Understanding Common Treatments


Use of Antibiotics in Ornamental Fish Aquaculture
Before antibiotics are even considered, sources of stress such as poor water quality (including drastic temperature change), nutrition, genetics, and handling or transport must be removed or reduced.


Understanding General Issues

Understanding Microscope Use
Teach Aquaculture Curriculum: Anatomy of a Fish

Feature Article: Hunting With A Microscope
Alf Nilsen wrote this piece in Advanced Aquarist...back in 2002. Reaching for this one! :cool:

I just noticed that I somehow posted indirect Google links in at least on place...the links seem to work, but I'll get that fixed shortly.
