Pacific white shrimp ( Litopenaeus vannamei ) are among the most important aquaculture species but are highly susceptible to Vibrio infections. Novel disease management strategies are necessary. Previous studies have reported that peracetic acid (PAA) is an effective disinfectant, but its application in shrimp aquaculture remains underexplored. This study aimed to determine the median lethal concentration (LC 50 ) of PAA at tw...

Peracetic acid (PAA) has a long history as an efficacious and eco‐friendly disinfectant. It was first synthesised in 1902, and since then a wide range of applications has been developed in various industries. Aquaculture is a more recent industry wherein the potential of PAA is significant. As the global demand for sustainable development increases, there has likewise been growing interest in using PAA in aquaculture as an alt...

Intra-Seasonal circulation regimes are identified from a cluster analysis of 5-day mean anomaly fields of 850 hPa horizontal winds from the ERA-Interim reanalysis for the boreal summer season (June–Sept. for 1979–2018) over the region (50°–100° E; 5° S–35° N). The k-means method was applied to the leading 6 principal components yielding k clusters. The degree of clustering is significant compared to synthetic data sets for any...

Many classical therapeutants are going to be banned in Europe, and an urgent need for alternatives is emerging. This issue can be exemplified by one major parasitic disease in aquaculture and ornamental fish breeding: velvet disease. This disease, caused by dinoflagellates of the genera Amyloodinium and Piscinoodinium , is an important infection affecting cultured freshwater and marine ornamental and food fish, and consistentl...
