Ciliate infection is a serious parasitic disease of coral. Infected coral rots and dies in a short time. In addition to killing corals by infecting them in the oceans, ciliate infection also poses a threat to corals farmed on a large scale. In this study, two antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT) were used to judge the stress response in after infection, and KCl and HO were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect. The results showed that SOD and CAT increased during the early stage of infection but decreased with the extension of infection time. In terms of drug therapy, it was found that the treatment of ciliate infection with 1.5% of KCl had no significant effect on SOD and CAT of . The morphological changes of zooxanthellae, chlorophyll a, and coral were not significant. HO leads to a stress response and polyp contraction. In conclusion, 1.5% of KCl can be used in the selection of drugs to treat ciliate infection.
纤毛虫感染是珊瑚的一种严重寄生虫病。受感染的珊瑚会在短时间内腐烂死亡。纤毛虫感染除了在海洋中通过感染杀死珊瑚外,还对大规模养殖的珊瑚构成威胁。在本研究中,使用两种抗氧化酶(超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶)来判断感染后的应激反应,并使用氯化钾和过氧化氢来评估治疗效果。结果表明,超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶在感染初期增加,但随着感染时间的延长而下降。在药物治疗方面,发现用1.5%的氯化钾治疗纤毛虫感染对(此处原文缺失相关主体)的超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶没有显著影响。虫黄藻、叶绿素a和珊瑚的形态变化不显著。过氧化氢会导致应激反应和珊瑚虫收缩。总之,1.5%的氯化钾可用于治疗纤毛虫感染药物的选择。
