Toxicity and efficacy of Furanace on channel catfish <i>Ictalurus punctatm</i> (Rafinesque) infected experimentally with <i>Aeromonas hydrophila</i>

Abstract

Abstract. The 96‐h medium tolerance limit of Furanace (nifurpirinol: P‐7138) for channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus at 21°C was 0‐94 mg/1. The most effective treatment level for channel catfish, experimentally infected with Aeromonas hydrophila , was 2mg/1 for 6.5 h. Furanace at 0.5 and 1.0 mg/1 in brain heart infusion agar reduced in vitro growth of A. hydrophila and at 2.0 mg/1 growth was completely
