Bioluminescence Imaging of Live Trout for Virus Detection using EnduRen™ Live Cell Substrate
Kari Kenefick, M.S.
Promega Corporation
We review a novel method for bioluminescence imaging of live fish. In
order to study the entry route and pathogenesis of a member of the virus
family Rhabdoviridae in young trout, Harmache et al. used a unique live
fish imaging system and bioluminescence. They were able to show
locations of viral entry and replication by examining fish at various
times postinfection and using a variety of pathogenic and nonpathogenic
Novirhabdoviridae isolates.
