Application of immunostimulants in larviculture: Feasibility and challenges
ZhouJin
Shanghai Fisheries University, E-mail: Zhoujin9346@sina.com) October-December 2003 (Vol. VIII No. 4) Immunostimulants are valuable for the control of fish diseases and may be useful in fish culture. Microbial pathogens are one of the main problems in the rearing of larvae. It is therefore important to develop methods for establishing microbial control at all stages of the cultivation progress. One possibility is immunostimulation, which includes methods of enhancing the capacities of the specific and nonspecific immune systems. There are many experiments on nonspecific immunostimulation of fish that suggest that the method has considerable potential for reducing losses in aquaculture, both during larval and on-growing stages. So, on one hand, we can say that use of immunostimulation in larviculture is possible. On the other h

Abstract
The stimulation of tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a), interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß), interleukin-10 (IL-10) or interleukin-12 (IL-12)-like proteins using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was investigated in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) orally treated with ß-1,3-glucan (ßG) for five days. The stimulation of each cytokine were determined in the plasma of tilapia orally t

Immunostimulant Patch Enhances Immune Responses to Influenza Virus
Vaccine in Aged Mice

Abstract
Improvement in the immune response to influenza virus vaccination in the elderly represents the primary unmet need in influenza virus vaccination. We have shown that topical application of immunostimulating (IS) patches containing heat-labile enterotoxin of Escherichia coli (LT) enhances immune responses to injected vaccines. We extend these findings and show that LT-IS patch application enhances the antibody responses to influenza virus vaccination

Efficacy of Benzalkonium Chloride as an Antibacterial and Immunostimulant
in Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man)

Fish Health Management Lab Central Institute Of Fisheries Education Seven Bungalows, Versova, Mumbai 400061, India
Asian Fisheries Science 13(2000): 279-285 Asian Fisheries Society, Manila, Philippines
Abstract
During the last decade many improvements have taken place in aquaculture, especially in prawn and shrimp farming. The shift from extensive to intensive and semi-intensive farming has brought about an increase in disease outbreaks, especially by bacteria. To control these diseases, antibiotics have been used indiscriminately. To avoid the use of antibiotics and the development of resistant strains of bacteria, we studied the efficacy of benzalkonium chloride (BKC), a quaternary ammoniu

In Vivo Activity of Released Cell Wall Lipids of Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Gue´rin Is Due Principally to Trehalose Mycolates¹
Rachel E. Geisel, Kaori Sakamoto, David G. Russell, and Elizabeth R. Rhoades²
The Journal of Immunology 2005, 174: 5007–5015.
Copyright © 2005 by The American Association of Immunologists, Inc.
Abstract
The hallmark of Mycobacterium-induced pathology is granulomatous inflammation at the site of infection. Mycobacterial lipids are potent immunomodulators that contribute to the granulomatous response and are released in appreciable quantities by intracellular bacilli. Previously we investigated the granulomagenic nature of the peripheral cell wall lipids of Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Gue´rin (BCG) by coating the lipids onto 90 m diameter microspheres that were mixed into Matrigel matri
