Bacterial Fish Pathogens - Disease of Farmed and Wild Fish (Hardcover, 5th ed. 2012): Brian Austin, Dawn A. Austin Bacterial Fish Pathogens - Disease of Farmed and Wild Fish (Hardcover, 5th ed. 2012)
Brian Austin, Dawn A. Austin
R5,736 Discovery Miles 57 360 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This completely updated fifth edition of Bacterial Fish Pathogens is a comprehensive discussion of the biological aspects of the bacteria which cause disease in farmed and wild fish. Since the 4th edition was published in 2007, there has been an upturn in the application of molecular approaches to taxonomy, diagnosis and vaccine development. New pathogens, e.g. Aeromonas schubertii, have been described. Also, there has been the emergence of diseases caused by bacteria which have not been cultured, and which have been equated with new taxa, i.e. Candidatus . Consideration is given to all the bacterial fish pathogens, including primary pathogens and opportunists."

In Vitro Methods in Aquatic Ecotoxicology (Hardcover, 2003 ed.): Carmel Mothersill, Brian Austin In Vitro Methods in Aquatic Ecotoxicology (Hardcover, 2003 ed.)
Carmel Mothersill, Brian Austin
R8,422 Discovery Miles 84 220 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

For the first time, here is a book that focuses on in vitro approaches to the study of the toxicology of polluting agents (including heavy metals, radionuclides, micro-organics, estrogenic compounds, and complex mixtures) in the aquatic environment. The importance of in vitro methods is that they allow standardised techniques to be developed and validated for substance and species specific experiments in a controlled way. Also, they allow mechanistic studies without the problems of individual variation between animals and environmental stress.

Probiotics in Aquaculture (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022): Brian Austin, S.M. Sharifuzzaman Probiotics in Aquaculture (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022)
Brian Austin, S.M. Sharifuzzaman
R5,126 Discovery Miles 51 260 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book has been developed to provide a detailed discussion of probiotics, which have been evaluated for use predominantly in fish and shellfish aquaculture. This book highlights strengths and weaknesses in knowledge and discusses gaps that need to be addressed. There has been a great deal of research concerning the use of probiotics in aquaculture. To date, a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and some eukaryotes, i.e. yeasts and unicellular algae, has been reported to be beneficial to aquatic hosts. Following oral uptake, benefit includes improved growth performance and protection against many bacteria and some parasitic diseases. This book will be suitable for scientists, veterinarians, professionals, and senior students involved in aquaculture.

Brian Austin
R4,066 Discovery Miles 40 660 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Schonland: Scientist and Soldier is a biography of Sir Basil Schonland FRS (1896-1972). Schonland was a major contributor to twentieth-century British and Commonwealth science, both in peace and war. This is not just a scientific biography, but a biography that tells much of a highly placed scientist and administrator, of the increasing engagement between science and the military, and of changing military-diplomatic relationships between Britain and South Africa. The author has drawn on a profusion of primary and secondary source material, from both South African and British archives, to produce a fine biography that is very readable and interesting.

The Handbook of Art Therapy and Digital Technology (Paperback): Ms Cathy A Malchiodi The Handbook of Art Therapy and Digital Technology (Paperback)

Interest in the use of digital technology in art therapy has grown significantly in recent years. This book provides an authoritative overview of the applications of digital art therapy with different client groups and considers the implications for practice. Alongside Cathy Malchiodi, the contributors review the pros and cons of introducing digital technology into art therapy, address the potential ethical and professional issues that can arise and give insight into the effect of digital technology on the brain. They cover a wide range of approaches, from therapeutic filmmaking to the use of tablet and smartphone technology in therapy. Detailed case studies bring the practicalities of using digital technology with children, adolescents and adults to life and the use of social media in art therapy practice, networking and community-building is also discussed.

This book puts emphasis on the isolation, taxonomy, diagnosis (phenotypic, serology and molecular biology), epizootiology, pathogenicity mechanisms, and methods of disease control (by vaccination, immunostimulation, probiotics, prebiotics, plant products, and antimicrobial compounds. Co-infections, which are attributed to more than one microbial species have been discussed. Shortcomings in knowledge have been highlighted. This sixth edition is the successor to the original version, first published in 1987, and which fills the need for an up-to-date comprehensive text on the biological aspects of the bacterial taxa which cause disease in finfish. The book is primarily targeted at researcher workers, including postgraduate students, and diagnosticians. It is anticipated that the readership will include veterinary microbiologists, public health scientists and microbial ecologists.
