In Vitro and Experimental Screening of Mangrove Herbal Extract against Vibrio Alginolyticus in Marine Ornamental Fish
نویسنده
چکیده
Present study summarizes the control of Vibrio alginolyticus infection in hatchery reared Clownfish, Amphiprion sebae with the extract of the mangrove plant, Avicennia marina. Fishes with visible symptoms of hemorrhagic spots were chosen and the genomic DNA of the causative bacterium was isolated and sequenced based on 16S rDNA gene. The in vitro assay revealed that a fraction of A. marina leaf extract elucidated with ethyl acetate: methanol (6:4) showed a high activity (28 mm) at 125 μg/ml concentrations. About 4 % of the fraction fed along with live V. alginolyticus was significantly decreased the cumulative mortality (P<0.05) in the experimental groups than the control group. The responsible fraction was investigated by gas chromatography mass spectroscopy and found the presence of active compounds. This is the first research in India to control vibriosis infection in marine ornamental fish with mangrove leaf extract. Keywords—Amphiprion seabe, Avicennia marina, Gas Chromatography Mass Spectroscopy, Vibrio alginolyticus

Microbiological assessment of vibriois infected blue damsel, Pomacentrus caeruleus reared in captivity in marine aquaria led to isolation of five distinct Vibrio species. Cultural, morphological and biochemical characteristics of these isolates identified them as Vibrio alginolyticus (29.4%), V. vulnificus (26.8%), V. fluvialis (15.3%), V. pelagius (9.1%) and V. anguillarum (19.4%). Predominant...
