Determining the age of individual Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer, 1837) copepodids by measuring stored lipid volume; proof of principle

Confocal microscopy has facilitated measurement of stained lipid volume in Lepeophtheirus salmonis copepodid larvae. Quantity of lipid, location and morphology of vesicles may allow an estimate of age and viability
