Seasonal variation in number of halophilic histamine-forming bacteria on marine fish.

Isolation and Identification of Histamine-forming bacteria in frozen Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis)

  This study aimed to investigate the quality of effluent water of a large shrimp farming complex in Chabahar region in Sistan and Baluchestan province (Iran). Fifteen sampling stations were designated in three distinct areas of these farms i.e. the water supply canal, the drainage canal and the receiving area of the farm effluents in Gwatar Gulf. Water samples were taken from June to December ...

Histamine Level in Freshwater and Marine Fish Sold in Bulgarian Markets

Background: Histamine is an essential biogenic amine produced as a result of microbial decomposition of histidine during seafood processing and storage. The objective of this study was to evaluate histamine concentration in freshwater and marine fish marketed in Stara Zagora region, Bulgaria. Methods: Forty fish samples were purchased from local fish farms and retail stores in Stara Zagora, Bu...

Antibiotic resistance profiling of marine halophilic bacteria and haloarchaea

Article history: Received on: 11/04/2016 Revised on: 09/05/2016 Accepted on: 24/06/2016 Available online: 29/10/2016 Drug resistance in microorganisms is an emerging phenomenon that poses challenges to public health and treatment. The reservoir of drug resistance genes found in the resistome of environmental isolates in aquatic saline systems has been augmenting continuously. The spread of drug...
