Microscope: Diagnosing Diseases Correctly

Microscopy is even more important for diagnosing diseases than it is for algae diagnosis. We first have to distinguish between parasites, bacterial infections, fungal infections, poisoning and water problems.

The best-known parasite is probably the ichthyo, followed by the so-called carb louse. Skin flukes, gill flukes and tapeworms also belong to the most common parasites. Most ulcers are triggered by bacterial infections, viruses, natural carp pox and KHV. The most common types of poisoning are metal and nitrite poisoning, but oxygen deficiency in the water can also have dire consequences for the fish.

In order to select the correct preparation, a smear is essential for a precise diagnosis. In these cases as with many other symptoms it’s best to go to a specialist shop or a veterinary surgeon with a microscope. Often very quick action is needed. Information about the fish stock, pond equipment, filling method, location and, of course, the current water values are also important. Here we recommend our JBL PROSCAN . With its precision in evaluating the values you have measured, we highly advise you to use it when you have problems with algae, water and diseases.

For a fast initial diagnosis our JBL Online Hospital can help you to narrow down the possible causes with more than 500 pictures: Online Hospital .

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
