Abstract
Norway lobsters Nephrops norvegicus from the coastal waters of Scotland are seasonally infected by a parasitic dinoflagellate of the genus Hematodinium. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed for the detection of the parasite in the haemolymph of N. norvegicus. The ELISA is simple to perform with a detection limit of 5 x 10(4) parasites ml(-1) haemolymph. The ELISA is currently being used to study the prevalence and seasonality of Hematodinium infection in N. norvegicus and other crustacean hosts.
