DNase and Gelatinase Activities Of β-Hemolysin Aeromonas hydrophila Isolated from Catfish (Clarias batrachus)

Aeromonas hydrophila: Antimicrobial Susceptibility and Histopathology of Isolates from Diseased Catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Burchell)

High antibiotic resistance is seen in bacterial infections caused by members of the genus Aeromonas [1]. They are amid the most common diseases of fish especially those in pond systems containing recirculation [2]. The emergence of resistance to antimicrobial agents in bacterial pathogens is a global public health problem [3]. A. hydrophila is a microorganism widely distributed in nature: in wa...

Control of melanosome movements in isolated skin melanophores of a catfish Clarias batrachus (Linn.).

Adrenergic and cholinergic receptors have been studied in isolated skin melanophores of a catfish Clarias batrachus. Catecholamines induced a strong aggregatory effect on the melanophores. Melanosome aggregation induced by adrenaline and noradrenaline was partially blocked by alpha adrenergic receptor blockers and a beta receptor blocker. Cholinomimetic drugs aroused a significant dispersion of...

Draft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas mosselii Gil3, Isolated from Catfish and Antagonistic against Hypervirulent Aeromonas hydrophila

Pseudomonas mosselii Gil3 was isolated from a catfish that survived from lethal challenge with hypervirulent Aeromonas hydrophila (vAh). When assayed in vitro, the bacterium showed antagonism against vAh. Sequence analysis revealed that the genome of P. mosselii Gil3 encodes numerous aromatic metabolism pathways and proteins for biosynthesis of antimicrobial compounds.
