EFFICIENCY AND CHARACTERIZATION OF AN ANTIBACTERIAL SECONDARY METABOLITE FROM ZINGBER OFFICINALE AGAINST AEROMONAS HYDROPHILA CAUSING AEROMONAS SEPTICEMIA IN TILAPIA NILOTICA ( OREOCHROMIS NILOTICUS

Protective Effects of Bacteriophages against Aeromonas hydrophila Causing Motile Aeromonas Septicemia (MAS) in Striped Catfish

To determine the effectivity of bacteriophages in controlling the mass mortality of striped catfish (Pangasianodonhypophthalmus) due to infections caused by Aeromonas spp. in Vietnamese fish farms, bacteriophages against pathogenic Aeromonashydrophila were isolated. A.hydrophila-phage 2 and A.hydrophila-phage 5 were successfully isolated from water samples from the Saigon River of Ho Chi Minh C...

Isolation and identification of Aeromonas hydrophila from an outbreak of haemorrhagic septicemia in snakes

Antibiotic and heavy metal resistance of Aeromonas hydrophila and Edwardsiella tarda isolated from red hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) coinfected with motile aeromonas septicemia and edwardsiellosis

AIM The aim of this study is to identify antibiogram and heavy metal resistance pattern of Aeromonas hydrophila and Edwardsiella tarda isolated from red hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) coinfected with motile aeromonas septicemia and edwardsiellosis in four commercial fish farms. MATERIALS AND METHODS A. hydrophila and E. tarda were isolated using glutamate starch phenol red and xylose lysin...

Pathogenic analysis of Aeromonas hydrophila septicemia.

Aeromonas hydrophila has emerged as a potential pathogen in the immunocompromised host. Various aeromonal infections, including septicemia, have also been reported in apparently healthy individuals. For years, researchers have disagreed over the epidemiologic roles of aeromonads in gastroenteritis. Isolation rates of aeromonads by stool culture among patients with gastroenteritis are not consis...

Skin and subcutaneous mycoses in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) caused by Fusarium oxysporum in coinfection with Aeromonas hydrophila

Subcutaneous mycoses in freshwater fish are rare infections usually caused by oomycetes of the genus Saprolegnia and some filamentous fungi. To date, Fusarium infections in farmed fish have only been described in marine fish. Here, we report the presence of Fusarium oxysporum in subcutaneous lesions of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Histopathologic evaluation revealed granuloma formation...
