| Abstract: | Background: Malachite green oxalate has been used for decades in fish farming to treat fish and eggs successfully against Saprolegnia infections and fish juveniles against protozoan Ichthyophthirius multifiliis. According to the Act of European Council (2377/90) those drugs used in animal production which don't have the MRL-value (maximum residue limit) are not allowed to use since 1.1.2000. Malachite green is one of those drugs without the MRL-value and due to its carcinogenic indications it will not receive this value. Alternative chemicals have been tested and used in many countries with varying success, and problems as well as losses of fish and eggs has been reported. Practical guidelines for aquaculture are still lacking. The purpose of this round table discussion was to round up experts and expertise in this field in order to share experiences and research results. |
