孔雀石绿的禁用及其替代药物美婷

Prohibition of Malachite Green and Its Alternative Drug Mei Ting

水霉病是水产养殖中常见的真菌性疾病,且危害严重.过去防治水霉病最有效的药物是孔雀石绿,但孔雀石绿具有高毒性、致癌、致畸和致突变的副作用,我国于2000年将其列为禁用药物.然而,由于孔雀石绿抗水霉效果好、廉价易得、缺少相应代替药物等因素,偷用行为时有发生且屡禁不止,严重危害水产品的质量安全.由上海海洋大学研发的"美婷"制剂在全国多省市的实践应用中显示出较好的抗水霉效果和安全性,对彻底杜绝孔雀石绿的使用,保障水产品的质量安全具有重大意义.

Malachite green was the most effective drug against Saprolegniasis which is a common fungal disease and shows serious hazard in aquaculture in the past, while it was listed as banned drugs in China in 2000 for its side effects of highly toxic, carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic. However, the malachite green has factors of good anti-Saprolegnia effect, cheaper, being easy to get and lack of correspond- ing alternative drugs, so that privately using had occurred frequently and never stopped despite repeated prohibitions, which caused serious harm to the quality and safety of aquatic products. The drug ＂ Mei Ting＂ developed by the Shanghai Ocean University shows good resistance efficacy to Saprolegnia and safety in the practice and application of many cities of China. It is of great significance to completely put an end to the use of malachite green as well as protect the quality and safety of aquatic products.
