qPCR Results for An Assessment of Pathogens in National Park Hot Springs qPCR Results for An Assessment of Pathogens in National Park Hot Springs
In 2018 and 2019, a multidisciplinary team from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), National Park Service, The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, Montana State University’s Department of Microbiology and Immunology, and the Teton Conservation District, initiated a study to document the presence or absence of Naegleria fowleri, Giardia, Escherichia coli, and
Development and testing of a qPCR assay for Lampsilis siliquoidea eDNA Development and testing of a qPCR assay for Lampsilis siliquoidea eDNA
Data describe specificity and sensitivity testing for the L.sil2 assay. This assay is used to amplify eDNA from the freshwater mussel Lampsilis siliquoidea.
Data Release for Validation of portable eDNA detection kit for Asian carps Data Release for Validation of portable eDNA detection kit for Asian carps
This is the qPCR and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) data in support of the article "Validation of a portable eDNA detection kit for invasive carps". There are four types of data contained in five files including: limit of detection analysis for each method (qPCR and LAMP), qPCR analysis and LAMP analysis of eDNA samples collected over time from ponds containing 3 or 33...
Developmental Stages of Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) eggs in the Sandusky River (ver. 3.0, July 2020) Developmental Stages of Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) eggs in the Sandusky River (ver. 3.0, July 2020)
Grass Carp Ctenopharyngodon idella was imported to the United States in the 1960s for research into its usefulness as a biocontrol agent for nuisance aquatic vegetation. Escapees and intentionally stocked individuals founded wild, spawning populations in the Mississippi River and tributaries to the Laurentian Great Lakes. USGS-led research on the Sandusky River, a tributary to Lake Erie
Marker residue depletion from the skin-on fillet tissue of rainbow trout exposed to AQUI S 20E: Marker residue depletion from the skin-on fillet tissue of rainbow trout exposed to AQUI S 20E:
Among the data required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for approval of an aquaculture drug are the data that characterize the depletion of a drugs marker residue from the edible fillet tissue of fish after exposure. Eugenol is the marker residue for AQUI-S 20E, a product proposed for use as a sedative for fish.Rainbow trout (Onchorynchus mykiss; a representative cold...

Environmental DNA dynamics of three species of unionid freshwater mussels Environmental DNA dynamics of three species of unionid freshwater mussels
North American freshwater mussels are of special conservation concern due to their high endemism and the multiple anthropogenic stressors affecting them. Of the over 300 species in North America, nearly one third of these species are federally listed as threatened or endangered. Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis has been successful in detecting freshwater mussels and could aid in...

Validation of a portable eDNA detection kit for invasive carps Validation of a portable eDNA detection kit for invasive carps
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a rapid molecular detection technique that has been used as a diagnostic tool for detecting human and animal pathogens for over 20 years and is promising for detecting environmental DNA shed by invasive species. We designed a LAMP assay to detect the invasive carps, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), bighead carp...

Using environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect the endangered Spectaclecase Mussel (Margaritifera monodonta) Using environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect the endangered Spectaclecase Mussel (Margaritifera monodonta)
Margaritifera monodonta, or the Spectaclecase Mussel, is a federally endangered freshwater mussel species that has experienced a 55% reduction in range and is currently concentrated in 3 rivers in the Midwest region of the United States (Gasconade and Meramec rivers, Missouri, and St Croix River, Wisconsin). The detection of new populations by traditional survey methods has been limited...

Live transport of Yellow Perch and Nile Tilapia in AQUI-S 20E (10% Eugenol) at high loading densities Live transport of Yellow Perch and Nile Tilapia in AQUI-S 20E (10% Eugenol) at high loading densities
Fish transport costs are a substantial portion of the operational expenses for aquaculture facilities in the USA. Safely transporting higher loading densities of fish would benefit haulers by increasing efficiency and reducing costs, but research evaluating transport for individual species is generally lacking. In this study, Yellow Perch Perca flavescens and Nile Tilapia Oreochromis...

Evaluation of a method for quantifying eugenol concentrations in the fillet tissue from freshwater fish species Evaluation of a method for quantifying eugenol concentrations in the fillet tissue from freshwater fish species
AQUI-S 20E® (active ingredient, eugenol; AQUI-S New Zealand Ltd, Lower Hutt, New Zealand) is being pursued for approval as an immediate-release sedative in the United States. A validated method to quantify the primary residue (the marker residue) in fillet tissue from AQUI-S 20E–exposed fish was needed. A method was evaluated for determining concentrations of the AQUI-S 20E marker...

Determination of the acute toxicity of isoniazid to three invasive carp species and rainbow trout in static exposures Determination of the acute toxicity of isoniazid to three invasive carp species and rainbow trout in static exposures
Three invasive fishes of considerable concern to aquatic resource managers are the Hypophthalmichthys nobilis (bighead carp),Hypophthalmichthys molitrix (silver carp), and Ctenopharyngodon idella (grass carp), collectively known as Asian carps. There is a need for an effective chemical control agent for Asian carps. Isoniazid was identified as a potential toxicant for grass carp. The...
