The study found that low temperature exposure could reduce the attachment ability of the amoebic gill disease parasite in vitro, but in a real environment, a 15-minute cold-water bath treatment was not more effective than a 2-hour freshwater bath.
Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is a significant health issue for Atlantic salmon farmed in a marine environment. While the disease is currently managed using freshwater or hydrogen peroxide baths, there is a need to develop other treatments. The aims of this study were to examine the effect of salinity (0 ppt and 35 ppt) and temperature (3 degrees C and 15 degrees C) on attachment and survival of Neoparamoeba perurans in vitro over short exposure times (15 min and 2 h) and to assess the efficacy of reduced temperature (3 degrees C) as treatment for Atlantic salmon affected by AGD. In vitro freshwater 3 degrees C was at least as effective as freshwater 15 degrees C and the attachment was significantly lower after 2 h in freshwater 3 degrees C than freshwater 15 degrees C. In vivo there was no difference between the fish treated with freshwater 15 degrees C for 2 h or freshwater 3 degrees C. This study showed that despite exposure to low temperature reducing attachment of N. perurans to their substrate in vitro, 15 min cold-water bath treatment was not more effective at reducing AGD in Atlantic salmon than current commercial 2 h freshwater bath.
