The study of Total Hemocyte Count and Total Protein Plasma in shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei infected with Monodon baculovirus
The investigation of Total Hemocyte Count (THC) and Total Protein Plasma (TPP) in shrimp juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei that exposed with Monodon Baculovirus (MBV) was carried out. Three hundred and sixty shrimps with average weight 7 to 12 g were selected from Heleh site in Bousher province and transported to Iran Shrimp Research Institute. The shrimp was acclimated during two days for stress reduction and adaptation. The shrimps were cheeked by PCR for WSSV, MBV, HPV, TSV, IHHNV and NHP and the result showed they are free of these diseases. The experiment was designed with selected 60 shrimps in triplicate as treatment and exposed with MBV during 12 hours and control group with triplicate without exposing with MBV. The hemolymph was withdrawn from abdominal segments of samples for measuring THC and TPC evaluation at designed hours (0, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96). The PCR test confirmed the MBV in treatment and the control were free of viruses. The results showed that the difference of THC and TPP value between treatment and control group during the experiment was significant (P < 0.05). This finding can be used for assessing the health of shrimp culture and prevention of MBV
Screening of pathological agent and recognize of disease in shrimp specific pathogen free (SPF) production
The production of specific pathogen free (SPF) of native shrimp is the first step for sustainable shrimp culture in Iran. This concept needs better understanding of health managmet and biosecurity in shrimp broodstock production for produc 25000MT in the five programe and development of Iran. In SPF center the main pathogen consist of viruses, bacteria and fungei that will be exclude the shrimp SPF.Theses pathogen divided to three categories, the first category consist of highly virlent pathogen such as white spot syndrome virus, Tura syndrome virus, Infection myonecrosis virus, infection hypodermal and hematopoietic virus. The second category are hepatopancratuc parvo like virus, and vibrio bacteria, Necrotizing hepatopnacratits, microsporidia and haplosporidia and the third category consist gregarines with light virlent.In the high level project that conducted in Iran between 2011 untill now about 8000 brodstoock collectd from farm culture in bousher province during September and October of 2012 from high health and Moluky stock. All shrimp tested for viruse, bacteria and fingai and the results showed the shrimp wrer free of viruse and bacterial pathogen. During the study one sample showed necrotizing hepatopancreatitis and we removed from the center
The سtudy on health situation of shrimp Litopenaus vannamei broodstoock production in earthen pond and comparing with fiberglass or cement tanks
The investigation of health and diseas situation of shrimp broodstook (Litopenaeus vannamei) in Boushehr province in earthen pond and cancreat and fiberglas was carried out from May 2014 until July 2014 with collected 100 samples brood stook from earthen pond and 100 samples from earth and fiberglas thank.The clinical sign of samples documented in take history form and then the samples transport to Iran Shrimp Research Instituet in Bousheher. The bacterial and fungal studied was carried out with hemolymp, hepatopacreas and gill tissue and then the shrimp preserved in Davidson Fixative for histopathology. A part of uropoda also preserved in ethyl alcholo for PCR study and detecting viruses. The result showed 10 bacteria consist V.harveyii, V.parahaemolyticus, V.anguillarum, V.vulnificus, V.mimicus, V.damsela,V.nereis, plesiomonas shigelloides V.alginolyticus V.proteolyticus, in earthen pond and 5 bacteria consit ,V.alginolyticus V.proteolyticus ، V.parahaemolyticus، V. damsela ،V.mimicus were identified in fiberglas thank. In this study 10 fungi consist Penecilium, Asp. Niger, Asp. Flavious, Asp. fomigatus, Acromonium, Ulocladium, Mucor, Cladosporium, Alternaria, Rhizopus, and 5 of them were identified in both broodstock from earthen pond and fiberglas thank. However 6 parasite consist of zoothamnium, vorticella, Acneta, Ephelota, Epistylis, Epistylis and Apastomom identified in earthen pond and three of them were identified in fiberglas thank. In histoplatholgy some tissue showed the effect of vibrio infecting in different organs as well in gill and midgut and the PCR examined were negative for all viruses. Regarding the produce healthy broodstock we need excuted the High Health procdure
Implementation biosecurity standard in shrimp specific pathogen free (SPF) research pilot study
Biosecurity means” all activities that decrease the introducing and expanding the pathogen in the shrimp farm” the main activity consisit physical, chemical and biological methods. Some factores has low risck and some of them have high risck level. The level of biosecurity in the shrimp farm and hatcheries is depends the equipmemt and expense that used in the program. For each situation in biosecurity, the scientist will be prepared the standard operation program (SOP) for each risck factor.In the Specific Pathogen Free program that conduted in Bousher, 10 SOP design for different risck factor in the banderga station and Persian Golf Centre for SPF production. The SOP, detecting the main pathogen in shrimp farm in shrimp, feed, water and any equipment in the project. The SOP also consider the disinfectant water with physical and chemival methods such as different net in different size, chemical such as chlorine and ozon and biological filter. During the project studied the methods exclude all pathogen from shrimp and feed and decreased the risck factors in program. The result showed if the culturist used these methods in the production, the safty of shrimp production increased and the sustainable shrimp culture will be available
Preparation of inactivated vaccine to induce resistance against white spot syndrome virus by nuclear & non nuclear techniques
The inactivated of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) by Gama and Electron radiation and chemical material such as Formalin with antigen property have been done during last year. At the first time the stock of virus prepared and purred it. Six hundred of shrimp Fenneropenaus indicus with average weight 7 to 12 gram collected from shrimp research station in Heleh area and transported to Shrimp Research Institute in Boushehr province. Vibrio parahemolyticus obtained from Veterinary University of Tehran and then lyophilized it. The bacterial V. parahemolyticus inactivated with Gamma, electron and formalin and then injected to shrimp for activated the immune system. The source of viruses was identified through PCR, TEM and histopathology methods from the shrimp infected in 2009 occurrence of boushehr province. The virus injected to crayfish and collected the hemlymph for prepared the stock of WSSV virus. The virus was lyophilized and then exposed to gamma and electron radiation and formalin with optimal dose for inactivated the virus. The shrimp divided to 25 groups and each group consist of six shrimp and the vaccine exposed to shrimp with injected and bathroom methods and the documented the result after 15 days. In vivo virus titration was performed in Penaeus indicus. Inactivation of WSSV was carried out by a gamma cell instrument Nordian, model 220 with dose rate: 4.8 Gy/sec and activity: 20469 Ci. The LD50 of live virus stock was calculated 10 5.4 / ml and the optimum dose of gamma radiation beam to inactivate WSSV was obtained 14-15 kGy. The LD50 of live virus stock was calculated 10 5.4 / ml and the optimum dose of electron beam to inactivate WSSV was obtained 12-13 kGy and and the virus inactivated by formalin 0.5% V/V during 10 minutes.The LD50 of live virus stock was calculated by Karber method 10 3.29 /ml and 10 5.35 /ml, respectively. The V. parahemolyticus was inactivated with 8 KG. The result showed all vaccine during 2 hours have a good effect to shrimp viruses with the 102.4 LD50 / 50 l titre. The result showed if the Gamma and electron vaccine increase to feed of shrimp the effect of vaccine is better than when used without feed. The end of experiment our study showed that the Gamma vaccine has the better effect to control WSSV during 2 hours with comparing the others
