Abstract

Despite advances in research employing zebrafish (Danio rerio) as an animal model, it is still difficult to obtain animals with attested sanitary qualities from commercial breeders. This study reports the first-time occurrence of Eustrongylides spp. parasitism in a zebrafish colony recently acquired from a pet store supplier to begin a research colony at a scientific facility. This parasite has not been reported in any current zebrafish health-monitoring guidelines to date. Thus, this report is a warning to breeders and researchers that this nematode can parasitize zebrafish, causing high lethality rates and compromising research outcomes.

斑马鱼(Danio rerio)养殖设施中真圆线虫属寄生虫暴发(线虫:双足线虫科)。

尽管利用斑马鱼(Danio rerio)作为动物模型的研究取得了进展，但从商业育种者那里获得具有卫生质量的动物仍然很困难。本研究报告了首次在斑马鱼群体中出现的Eustrongylides spp.寄生虫，最近从宠物商店供应商那里获得，开始在科学设施中进行研究群体。迄今为止，在任何现行的斑马鱼健康监测指南中尚未报告这种寄生虫。因此，该报告是对育种者和研究人员的一个警告，即这种线虫可以寄生在斑马鱼上，造成高死亡率并影响研究成果。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
