Abstract
Despite advances in ichthyo-pathology of recent years, interpretation of fish serum biochemical parameters is often difficult by lack of reference values. That is why to know the value of the serum biochemical parameters can be a useful tool for monitoring health status, detecting illnesses and responses to therapy. This paper provides data concerning biochemical composition of carp serum (Cyprinus carpio) bred at Brateş Farm of Institute of Research and Development for Aquatic Ecology, Fishing and Aquaculture from Galaţi and Pleaşa Farm from Ploieşti, Romania. In research conducted on Cyprinus carpio were determined following serum biochemical parameters: glucose (GLU), total proteins (TP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), cholesterol (CHOL), triglyceride (TRIG), sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), iron (Fe).

PCR detection of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) from farmed Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in selected sites of the Philippine
Great losses caused by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in shrimp culture have been attributed to poor screening procedures in farms and the lack of sufficient access to specific pathogen free brood stock. Thus, early...
