Non-invasive ways to measure immunocompetence of wild fish.
The immune system has several specialised bodies to identify and respond to any microbe that enters the host with cells and molecules’ motivation in the bloodstream. Unresponsiveness causes immunodeficiency, while overreacting to foreign microbes causes autoimmunity tissue harm. It is known that fish do contain an amount of “natural antibodies”, however, limited to almost no studies have investigated whether there are “natural antibodies” in fish’s mucus that identify antigens on the surface of the RBC of a sheep; hence this research intends to address the identified gap in the literature.
The research questions and objectives are as so: –
