Abstract: (470 Views) |
There is a wide range of clinical signs of disease in aquatic animals, unfortunately not many of them pathognomonic. Presented in this short review are examples of the clinical signs associated with selection of pathologies related to most common infectious and non-infectious noxic agents. Discussed information is aimed at veterinarians and paraveterinarians that are involved in aquatic laboratory animal care and use, with examples of clinical observation score sheets to be used in evaluation of clinical condition of aquatic animals used in institutionally approved disease experiments during which animals are expected to develop pathologies related to experimental challenges.
