HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

Study of early, Cellular responses to IPN virus infection in salmonids

This project will focus the basic mechanisms and characteristics of IPn virus infection in vivo and in vitro. Cell responses to virus infection are usually associated with cytokine upregulation, typically of interferons alfa and beta. The knowledge of the se responses in Atlantic salmon are limit...

Lipid metabolism in Atlantic salmon. Effect of dietary lipids on gene regulation and membrane function

The overall aim of the study is to gain knowledge about the molecular events that control the flux of nutrients (especially fatty acids) into, out of, and between compartments of important tissues in lipid metabolism, such as liver, muscle and adipose cel ls. In our research we will concentrate o...

Oppdrett av berggylte (Labrus bergylta)

Leppefisk har vært brukt som lakselusplukker i lakseoppdrett i mange år. Ved riktig bruk er den en økonomisk, økologisk og miljøvennlig metode i kampen mot lakselusa, og regnes som et fortrinn Norge har fremfor andre lakseproduserende land. Bergylte er de n eneste leppefisken som kan brukes på la...

Accelerated intensive production of juvenile halibut: the impact of environmental regulation and water quality

A sustainable production of Atlantic halibut will be dependent on a year-round supply of juveniles reared in intensive land-based system at high densities. To effectively exploit such systems it is necessary to obtain detailed knowledge on the impact of k ey rearing factors (temperature, photoper...

Infection with Parvicapsula (Myxosporea) in farmed Atlantic salmon. Taxonomy, epizootiology, pathology and biology

An unidentified myxosporean parasite in the genus parvicapsula has caussed significant mortality in farmed Atlantic salmon in northern Norway. This parasite has never previously been seen in Norway. It is feard that the parasite may also have negative con sequences for wild populations of Atlanti...

Vaksiner og vaksinestrategier for bakteriesykdommer hos torsk

Sykdommene vibriose, kaldtvannsvibriose og atypisk furunkulose er alle påvist i torsk. Vibriose som forårsakes av Vibrio anquillarum er et definert problem og gir dødelighet fra tidlig yngelfase (>lg) til slakteferdig torsk, mens kaldtvannsvibriose og aty pisk furunkulose foreløpig bare er påvist...

Bleeding of Fish

Bleeding of fish has become a important quality issue over the past few years. Blood spotting of salmon fillets are a major cause of downgrading and will become an even more important quality trait for whitfish as cod. Besides knowing that a major vein ha s to be cut as early as possible post mor...

Codtech - a process oriented approach to intensive production of marine juveniles with main emphasis on cod

The Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is an important candidate for marine aquaculture. FAO regards cod as one of the most promising new aquaculture species, and assume that the production could be at least 1-2 million tons per year by 2015. The present Program me is a multidisciplinary biological-biot...

The physiological implications of stress and its prevention through improved use of anaesthetics, sedatives, muscle relaxants and analgesics

Stress signals are mediated through different neural pathways. Ocular (sight), vibration (side line, ear) and nociception (touch and pain). Also confinement to sub optimal environments as crowding, low oxygen, wrong salinity, high CO2 (blood pH) will acti vate neural pathways. Naturally will the ...
