New information of NHP

NHP and IMNV are both important shrimp diseases that have hit the industry severely in the Americas.  Owing to the disease potential worldwide, the world¡¦s animal health organization, OIE, has officially listed them disease notifiable earlier this year.

The transmission pathways of both diseases are still under research, but it is proved that improved health management in hatchery, and use of healthy brooders as well as close PCR monitoring of the animals are the keys to successful farming.  For your quick reference, please see the description and photos below.

¡° Signs of NHP: soft shells, black gills, reduced food intake, empty gut, digestive gland (hepatopancreas) shrink and appears pale. (~90% mortality rate).
