Detection of aeromonas salmonicida in wild atlantic salmon using a specific dna probe test

The presence of Aeromonas salmonicida, the etiological agent of furunculosis, was examined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA probe methodology in wild Atlantic salmon Salmo salar taken from 3 Irish river systems. Blood samples from 61 individual fish were examined and the presence of pat...
