Poser
No full textPoser is a book of poems consisting of seven sections. The poems inside the book deal with a range of topics, but focus centrally around the development of identity in contemporary society. The work calls to question the paths human beings seek in order to affirm selfhood, and deals heavily with the psychological problem known as "Imposter Syndrome." The sections address distinct periods of development and their corresponding spiritual, social, and human inquiries, which end up defining the shapes of our lives.M.F.A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Evan Gill Smit

Nodular gill disease: a unique form of proliferative gill disease in rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri Richardson
No full textIn an outbreak of proliferative gill disease in laboratory rainbow trout fingerlings lesions were multifocal among filaments and uniquely severe in the distal region of affected filaments, forming nodules. This contrasted with the more common forms of proliferative gill disease in Ontario, such as bacterial gill disease, in which lesions are diffuse along and among filaments. The cause is unknown, although cells with a very distinctive morphology were closely associated with the lesions..RE: 22 ref.; SC: ZA; CA; VE; 0V; 0ISource type: Electronic(1) http://upei-resolver.asin-risa.ca?sid=SP:CABI&id=pmid:&id=&issn=0140-7775&isbn=&volume=8&issue=6&spage=511&pages=511-522&date=1985&title=Journal%20of%20Fish%20Diseases&atitle=Nodular%20gill%20disease%3a%20a%20unique%20form%20of%20proliferative%20gill%20disease%20in%20rainbow%20trout%2c%20Salmo%20gairdneri%20Richardson.&aulast=Daoust&pid=%3Cauthor%3EDaoust%2c%20P%20Y%3bFerguson%2c%20H%20W%3C%2Fauthor%3E%3CAN%3E19862272504%3C%2FAN%3E%3CDT%3EJournal%20article%3C%2FDT%3

Novel insights on microbiome dynamics during a gill disease outbreak in farmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
No full textThe generic term “Gill disease” refers to a wide range of disorders that affect the gills and severely impact salmonid aquaculture systems worldwide. In rainbow trout freshwater aquaculture, various etiological agents causing gill diseases have been described, particularly Flavobacterium and Amoeba species, but research studies suggest a more complex and multifactorial aetiology. Here, a cohort of rainbow trout affected by gill disease is monitored both through standard laboratory techniques and 16S rRNA Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis during a natural disease outbreak and subsequent antibiotic treatment with Oxytetracycline. NGS results show a clear clustering of the samples between pre- and post-treatment based on the microbial community of the gills. Interestingly, the three main pathogenic bacteria species in rainbow trout (Yersinia ruckeri, Flavobacterium psychrophilum, and Flavobacterium branchiophilum) appear to be weak descriptors of the diversity between pre-treatment and post-treatment groups. In this study, the dynamics of the gill microbiome during the outbreak and subsequent treatment are far more complex than previously reported in the literature, and environmental factors seem of the utmost importance in determining gill disease. These findings present a potential novel perspective on the diagnosis and management of gill diseases, showing the limitations of conventional laboratory methodologies in elucidating the complexity of this disease in rainbow trout. To the authors’ knowledge, this work is the first to describe the microbiome of rainbow trout gills during a natural outbreak and subsequent antibiotic treatment. The results of this study suggest that NGS can play a critical role in the analysis and comprehension of gill pathology. Using NGS in future research is highly recommended to gain deeper insights into such diseases correlating gill’s microbiome with other possible cofactors and establish strong prevention guidelines
Pathology of bacterial gill disease: sequential development of lesions during natural outbreaks of disease
No full textThe sequential pattern of bacterial colonization and the sequential development of branchial lesions during typical outbreaks of bacterial gill disease (BGD) was studied among 4 groups of commercially reared rainbow trout fingerlings, Oncorhynchus mykiss. During a 5-month monitoring regime, before the onset of natural outbreaks of BGD, gill morphology of examined fish remained unaltered. Bacterial colonization of the gills was immediately preceeded by several gill changes which were widely present in fish from all groups under study. These changes, which were detectable at the ultrastructural level only, included cytoplasmic blistering and degeneration of the microridges of the superficial filament epithelium, in addition to slight topographical irregularity of the filament tips suggestive of mild hyperplasia. Bacterial colonization began at these altered filament tips before spreading to more proximal regions of the filament and adjacent lamellar surfaces. Explosive increases in proportional morbidity and mortality coincided with the development of the following gill lesions: extensive bacterial colonization of lamellar surfaces, lamellar epithelial hydropic degeneration and necrosis, and lamellar oedema. In contrast, gill lesions such as lamellar fusion, epithelial hyperplasia and various metaplastic responses were detected either as subacute (3-5 days) or chronic (7-14 days) changes. The role of epithelial necrosis as an important event during BGD is discussed as a possible mechanism leading to development of sub-acute and chronic gill lesions..RE: 37 ref.; SC: CA; VE; 0I; ZA; 0VSource type: Electronic(1) http://upei-resolver.asin-risa.ca?sid=SP:CABI&id=pmid:&id=&issn=0140-7775&isbn=&volume=14&issue=1&spage=21&pages=21-32&date=1991&title=Journal%20of%20Fish%20Diseases&atitle=Pathology%20of%20bacterial%20gill%20disease%3a%20sequential%20development%20of%20lesions%20during%20natural%20outbreaks%20of%20disease.&aulast=Speare&pid=%3Cauthor%3ESpeare%2c%20D%20J%3bFerguson%2c%20H%20W%3bBeamish%2c%20F%20W%20M%3bYager%2c%20J%20A%3bYamashiro%2c%20S%3C%2Fauthor%3E%3CAN%3E19912256145%3C%2FAN%3E%3CDT%3EJournal%20article%3C%2FDT%3

Examination of gills from salmonids with bacterial gill disease using monoclonal antibody probes for Flavobacterium branchiophilum and Cytophaga columnaris
No full textBacterial diseases of the gills of commercially reared salmonids in freshwater are common problems. They accounted for 18% of all diagnostic submissions to the Atlantic Veterinary College from commercial fish hatcheries. Definitive diagnosis is difficult because of the growth characteristics of the putative bacteria in culture. Research into the pathogenesis of these diseases has also been similarly limited. Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were developed to 2 globally significant gill bacterial pathogens, Flavobacterium branchiophilum, the causative agent of bacterial gill disease, and Cytophaga columnaris, the causative agent of columnaris disease of salmonids. These MAbs were then used as the basis for an indirect fluorescent antibody test to assess archived cases of gill disease in our study region. Of the cases tentatively diagnosed based on histopathology as bacterial gill disease, 76.2% tested positively with the MAbs to F. branchiophilum. Also present within 18.7% of these cases were bacteria which reacted positively to the MAbs for C. columnaris. We conclude that the MAbs produced are valuable diagnostic and research probes for common bacterial disease of the gills of salmon and trout in Atlantic Canada. This study also adds further proof that F. branchiophilum acting alone can be sufficient cause for bacterial gill disease.LR: 20061115; PUBM: Print; JID: 9011490; 0 (Antibodies, Monoclonal); ppublishSource type: Electronic(1
