Isolation, identification, and characterization of Aeromonas hydrophila from juvenile farmed pangasius (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bacterial samples had been isolated from clinically detected diseased juvenile Pangasius, collected from Mymensingh, Bangladesh. Primarily, the isolates were found as Gram-negative, motile, oxidase-positive, fermentative, and O/129 resistant Aeromonas bacteria. The species was exposed as Aeromonas hydrophila from esculin hydrolysis test. Ten isolates of A. hydrophila were identified from eye lesions, kidney, and liver of the infected fishes. Further characterization of A. hydrophila was accomplished using API-20E and antibiotic sensitivity test. Isolates were highly resistant to amoxyclav among ten different antibiotics. All isolates were found as immensely pathogenic to healthy fishes while intraperitoneal injection. Histopathologically, necrotic hematopoietic tissues with pyknotic nuclei, mild hemorrhage, and wide vacuolation in kidney, liver, and muscle were principally noticed due to Aeromonad infection. So far, this is the first full note on characterizing A. hydrophila from diseased farmed Pangasius in Bangladesh. The present findings will provide further direction to develop theranostic strategies of A. hydrophila infection.

The fatty acid composition of farmed Tra catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus) was determined and compared to farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo solar) and to wild-caught Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer). Saturated fatty acids (SFA) were most abundant in catfish (42.6%) while salmon (37.2%) and seabass (39.0%) were rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Tra catfish contains Docosahexaenoic acid (DH...
