Along with globalization of traveling and trading, fish-borne nematodiases seems to be increasing in number. However, apart from occasional and sporadic case reports or mini-reviews of particular diseases in particular countries, an overview of fish-borne nematodiasis among travelers have never been performed. In this review, we gathered fish-borne nematodiasis among travelers for recent 25 years by an extensive global literature survey using appropriate keywords, e.g. travelers diseases, human infection, anisakiasis, gnathostomiasis, capillariasis, sushi, sashimi, ceviche, Gnathostoma, Pseudoterranova, Anisakis, Capillaria, etc., as well as various combinations of these key words. The Internet search engines PubMed, Medline, Google and Googler Scholar were used as much as possible, and the references of every paper were checked in order to identify useful and reliable publications. The results showed unexpectedly high incidence of gnathostomiasis and low incidence of anisakidosis. The different incidence values of the infection with several fish-borne zoonotic nematode species are discussed, as well as some epidemiological aspects of the infections. The difficulties of differential diagnosis in non-endemic countries are emphasized. It is concluded that travelers must avoid risky behaviors which can lead to infection and that physicians and health authorities must advice travelers on the risks of eating behaviors during travel.

과거 양식장에서 어류 질병은 세균성이었던 반면 최근은 바이러스성 및 혼합된 형태가 되면서 어류 질병의 빈도가 높아졌다. 양식장이라는 밀폐된 공간에서 바이러성 질병은 확산속도가 높으므로 집단 폐사로 이어질 확률이 매우 높다. 집단 폐사를 방지하기 위해서는 어류 질병의 빠른 식별이 중요하다. 그러나 어류의 질병 진단은 고도의 전문지식이 필요하고 매번 어류의 상태를 눈으로 확인하기 어렵다. 질병의 확산을 막기 위해서는 병이든 어류의 자동식별 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 딥러닝 기반의 넙치의 질병 식별 시스템의 성능을 높이기 위해서 기존 전처리 방법을 비교 실험한다. 대상 질병은 넙치에서 가장 빈번히 발생하는 3가지 질병 스쿠티카병, 비브리오증, 림포시스티스를 선정하였고 이미지 전처리 방법으로 RGB, HLS, HSV, LAB, LUV, XYZ, YCRCV를 사용하였다. 실험결과 일반적인 RGB를 사용하는 것보다 HLS가 가장 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 간단한 방법으로 질병의 인식률을 향상해 어류 질병 식별 시스템을 고도화 할 수 있을 것으로 예상한다.

The author introduces the preventive and therapeutic methods of diseases in Japanese flounder which have been conducted by the Fish Disease Laboratory, the Mikamewan Fishery Cooperative Union, Ehime Prefecture, since 1982. Prevention 1. Addition of a sand substrate in the culture pond was effective to prevent ulcer disease. 2. Bathing in 0.5ppm of copper ion was effective to prevent some parasites. 3. Low stocking density of the fish reduced an incidence of edwardsiellosis or gliding bacterial disease. 4. Removal of the diseased fish prevented thd spread of lyphoeystis. 5. So-called $\pi$-water was effective to prevent the fry from some diseases. 6. Immersion of the juvenile in a sodium nifrusylate solution during transportation was effective to prevent gliding bacterial disease. Therapy 1. Sodium nifrustylate or oxytetracycline was effective to cure gliding bacterial disease. 2. Bathing in formalin(150ppm) or freshwater was effective to cure scuticociliatidosis. 3. Erythromycin was effective to cure $\beta$-hemolytic Streptococcus sp. infection. 4. Bathing in a hydrogen peroxide solution(1.5%) was effective to cure white spot disease.

Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay was used to detect and identify four fish viruses, fish iridovirus, viral hemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV), viral nervous necrosis virus (VNNV), hirame rhabdovirus (HRV). Four viruses were detected by PCR with each specific primers. Identification of iridovirus was achieved by digesting the PCR amplified fragment with a restriction enzyme ApaⅠ. It was possible to distinguish positive from false positive PCR amplicons of VHSV by RFLP of PstⅠ or HindⅢ restriction enzymes. VNNV was identified using RFLP of BamHⅠrestriction enzyme and HRV was identified by XbaⅠ restriction enzyme. This approach can be used for more rapid, simple and specific diagnosis of fish viral diseases.

항생제란 어떤 미생물의 생성물질로서 다른 미생물의 증식을 억제하거나 살균작용을 나타내는 것을 의미한다. 현재까지 알려진 4000여종의 항생제중, 수산용으로는 약 20여종이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 항생제의 분류는 화학적 구조와 부수되는 기능에 의하는 것이 일반적이며 그 효과는 적용되는 병원성균의 종류와 어류가 처해있는 환경에 따라 대단히 영향을 받는다. 그러므로 항생제의 종류와 적용방법은 정확한 질병에 대한 원인 규명이 있은 후 결정되어져야 할 것이다. 무절제하게 사용된 항생제는 자연적으로 발생하여 존재하고 있는 내성균을 선택적으로 증식 가능케 한다. 이미 일본의 수많은 양어장에서 내성균 출현의 보고가 있었고, 많은 종류의 내성균은 R plasmid를 가지고 있다는 것도 밝혀졌다. 우리나라의 양어장에서도 내성균 출현과 R plasmid에 의한 내성균 확산은 곧 문제가 될 수 있는 가능성이 크므로 전반적인 역학조사가 있어야 할 것이다. 상용항생제의 어류에 대한 약동력학, 잔존량, 임상적용 실험등에 대한 연구는 상당히 되어 있어 적절한 이들 항생제의 사용이 가능하지만, 현재까지 대부분의 수산용 항생제에 대해서는 연구해야 될 부분이 아직 많이 남아 있다. 그러므로 어류질병 치료와 항생제의 정확한 사용을 위해서는 양식사업을 하고 있는 현장과 진단을 할 수 있는 실험실의 긴밀한 협조관계가 무엇보다 중요하다 할 것이다.

Vibriosis is an important septicemic bacterial disease that affects a variety of commercial fish species, including cultured Dicentrarchus labrax. Nanotechnology has become an important modern tool for fish diseases prevention. Furthermore, nanomaterials have the ability to prevent and treat fish diseases. The current study was aimed to identify the causative agent of massive mortality of D. labrax commercial farm in Alexandria, Egypt. Experimental infection and the median lethal dose (LD50) of pathogenic isolate were assessed. Also, the effect of ginger nanoparticles (GNPs) and Sacchromyces cerevisiae as feed additives for prevention of vibriosis in D. labrax was carried out. Similarly, the tissue immunstimulant genes, IL-1β and TLR2 were measured in the spleen of feeding groups. The clinical signs of naturally diseased D. labrax showed corneal opacity and paleness of gills with excessive mucous secretion. The post-mortem abnormalities were severe hemorrhage and adhesion of internal organs. After bacteriological isolation and identification, the causative agent of mortality in the current study was Vibrio alginolyticus. The LD₅₀ of V. alginolyticus was 1.5×10^5.4 CFU/ml. The experimentally infected D. labrax showed ulceration, exophthalmia and skin hemorrhages. The post-mortem findings of the experimentally infected D. labrax revealed internal hemorrhage, spleen darkness and paleness of liver. There is no mortality and 100% RPS in groups fed GNPs then injected with V. alginolyticus, in those fed a combination of GNPs and S. cerevisiae and a group fed normal diet then injected with physiological saline (control negative), respectively. Contrarily, there was 10% mortality and 87.5 RPS in the group fed S. cerevisae then injected with V. alginolyticus. On the other hand, the control positive group showed 79% mortality. The spleen IL-1β and TLR2 immunostimulant genes were significantly increased in groups of fish fed GNNP, S. cerevisiae and a combination of GNPs and S. cerevisiae, respectively compared to control group. The highest stimulation of those immunostimulant genes was found in the group fed a combination of GNPs and S. cerevisiae, while fish fed S. cerevisiae had the lowest level. Dietary combination of GNPs and S. cerevisiae was shown to be efficient in preventing of vibriosis, with greatest stimulation of spleen IL-1β and TLR2 immunostimulant genes.

Antibacterial efficacy and safety of copper sulfate pentahydrate (5% solution) was evaluated in laboratory and field studies for disinfection of some fish bacterial pathogens in cultured fish, flounder(Paralichthys olivaceus), mirror carp(Cyprinus carpio), gold fish(Carrassius auratus) and eel(Anguilla japonica). Dipping of fishes for acute toxicity was performed for a period of 48h, and the TLm value(median tolerance limit) were 4.0ppm in mirror carp and flounder, 4.4ppm in rainbow trout, and 10.0ppm in gold fish. After exposure below than TLm value for 1 month, no side effects and histopathological changes were observed. The test drug were shown high antibacterial activities against most bacterial pathogens by exposure in the laboratory and field trials. However, Aeromonas salmonicida showed a resistance to the dosage. We can prevent outbreaks of bacterial diseases of fish by the dosage of 1ppm for 6hr and the test drug is thought to be used effectively and widely as a disinfectant against most bacterial fish pathogens.

Flounder culture has been developed mainly in the western parts of japan, and, to date, following six bacterial diseases have been reported. Bacterial white enteritis occurs in 16 to 30-day-old flounder larvae and often causes mass mortality in seed production. Bacterium named Vibrio sp. INFL invades and multiplies in the mucosae of posterier part of intestine, and causes desquamative enteritis. Gliding bacterial disease occurs mostly in juvenile stage and in spring to summer. Diseased signs are partial discoloration and erosion of skin and fins. Histologically, epidermis are removed, and the causative bacterium, Flexibacter maritimus, multiplies on the surface of demis and invades into the muscular tissue. Vibriosis caused by Vibrio anguillarum and related organisum is one of the well-known diseases among marine fish. Outbreaks of the disease in flounder culture are relatively few, but mass mortalities in fingerlings due to the disease were reported. An outbreak of nocardiosis in the autumn of 1984 has been reported, but since then the disease scarcely occurred. The disease is characterized by formation of abscesses under the skin and white nodes in the gill, heart, spleen and kidney. Streptococcicosis occurs frequently in recent years. Beta-hemolytic streptococcus is the causative bacterium, which possesses the same biochemical and serological characteristics as $\beta$-streptococci isolated from some marine and freshwater fish, and is seemed to related to Streptococcus iniae. Edwardsiellosis is the disease that causes most damage in flounder culture in Japan. Characteristic symptoms are swelling of abdomen and intestinal protrusion from the anus due to accumulation of ascites. Edwardsiella tarda, a well-known pathogen of freshwater fish, is the causative bacterium of the disease.

An epidemiological study was performed to evaluate the state of fish diseases between aquaculture fishes in the area of southern Kyeongnam, especially Tongyeong-si, Geoje-si, and Goseong-gun. Examination for a total of 91 cases was carried out for a variety of fishes, including Japanese flounder(Paralichthys olivaceus), rock fish (Sebastes schlegeli), sea bass (Lateolabrax japonicus), sea breams(Pagrus major), and red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) from November, 1999 to October, 2001. The investigation resulted in exploring 155 infectious diseases, including 62 Vibriosis, 16 Edwasiella infection, 11 Streptococcosis, 7 Pseudotuberculosis, 15 Scuticociliatida infection, 20 Gill flukes, and 9 Trichodiniasis. When the infections were classified according to fish species, Japanese flounder was infected by 30 Vibrio spp., 16 Edwardsiella tarda, 6 Streptococcus spp., 12 Scuticociliatida infection. In case of sea bass, 10 Vibrio spp. was able to isolate out of 10 outbreaks, on the other hand, rock fish was dominantly infected by gill flukes since it was observed 12 out of a total of 20 cases. With reference to seasonal fluctuation, Vibrio spp. infection was continually observed through all seasons but Edwardsiella septicaemia, Streptococcosis and Pseudotuberculosis was mainly isolated in summer and autumn when the water temperature was raised high. Scuticociliatida infection was frequently occurred from late autumn to early spring but gill flukes were watched all the year regardless of temperature. As regards, multiple infection, 47 out of 91 cases was Identified to have involved in more than 2 pathogens, especially Vibrio spp. was highly mixed with other pathogens since 42 out of 47 cases was mixed with Vibrio spp.
