  <dc:description>&lt;p class="abstract_block"&gt;Non-lethal assay of mucus was assessed for detection of&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Aeromonas salmonicida&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;among feral populations of salmon returning to the Salmon River (Altmar, NY, USA).&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;A. salmonicida&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;was isolated from returns of 2 year classes of coho&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Oncorhynchus kisutch&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;and chinook&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;O. tshawytscha&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;salmon. Data suggested that non-lethal assay of mucus was comparable to standard lethal procedures used to detect and isolate&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;A. salmonicida&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;from kidney tissues. Non-lethal procedures were also used to detect&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;A. salmonicida&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;and monitor the effectiveness of antibiotic therapy for the control of furunculosis among valuable Atlantic salmon&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Salmo salar&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;broodstock maintained at the Richard Cronin National Salmon Station (Sunderland, MA, USA).&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
