The article informs that Pseudomonas fluorescens is widely distributed in the freshwater ecosystem and is recognised as one of the primary causal agents of bacterial haemorrhagic septicaemia in fish, usually in association with environmentally stressful conditions such as high temperatures or overcrowding. The organism may also establish itself as a secondary invader of damaged tissue and has been identified as an opportunistic pathogen in fish affected with chronic infectious pancreatic necrosis. The comparatively recent introduction of test kits for the rapid diagnosis of bacterial fish diseases has encouraged fish farmers, veterinarians and laboratories to identify suspected A. salmonicida isolates by serological methods alone, without recourse to more lengthy cultural and biochemical confirmatory tests. |
