Abstract
Cross‐contamination of epidermal mucus was assessed at three sampling locations on the bodies of Pacific halibut Hippoglossus stenolepis by inducing contact between fish coated with labelled synthetic mucus and non‐treated fish. Results indicate a positive relationship between sampling site exposure and sample contamination and that mucous sample cross‐contamination can be mitigated by sampling in a location protected from external contact.
