the intensive use of antimicrobial agents worldwide for prophylactic and therapeutic purposes has been associated with increase of bacterial resistance in the exposed microbial environment. oxytetracycline is the most frequently used antibacterial in the cold water fish industry because of its broad spectrum of activity and low cost. aeromonas hydrophila and other motile aeromonads are among th...

Ten strains of Aeromonas hydrophila isolated from water samples were characterized by various methods including biochemical and physiological tests, as well as PCR-RFLP analysis with Universal 16s rRNA primers. Biochemical characterization and PCR-RFLP analysis proved to be useful, rapid and reliable method for identifying widely distributed Aeromonas spp. from environmental samples. The signif...

A study was carried out to evaluate the probiotic activity of Bacillus subtilis G1 isolated from fermented pickles in growth performance and disease resistance of Hemibagrus nemurus fingerlings at Universiti Putra Malaysia. The probiotic was mixed in feed at doses of 0 (C, control), 3 x 109 (T1) 3 x 107 (T2) and 3 x 105 (T3) cfu g-1 and fed to the catfish fingerlings for nine weeks. Results sho...

The present study deals with the isolation and characterization of protease producing Aeromonas hydrophila from diseased catfish. To isolate Aeromonas hydrophila from diseased catfish, Confirmation using biochemical tests. The effect of pH, temperature on the growth of Aeromonas hydrophila was conducted and checked the cytotoxicity of the enzyme protease responsible for pathogenicity in fishes....

Aeromonas hydrophila, an anaerobic gram-negative bacillus, can cause severe infections in immune-compromised patients. We present a 45-year-old cirrhotic man who suffered from hematemesis and received emergency endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS) for gastric variceal bleeding. Twenty-one hours after EIS, painful swelling of the bilateral lower extremities and fever occurred. Severe soft-ti...

zoonoses can be transmitted to people by many birds such as pigeons. considering many people’s interests to keep pigeons, present study was conducted to pcr detection of aeromonas hydrophila that is cause of many human infections such as gastroenteritis, wound infections and septicemia from pigeons in hahrekord. altogether 293 samples of pigeon faeces were collected with sterile cotton swabs fr...

Aeromonas hydrophila was isolated from diseased Siamese fighting fish Betta splendens Regans.  The virulence of A. hydrophiala to Siamese fighting fish was conducted by intraperitoneal injection of two doses of bacterial suspensions with 7.5×107 and 7.5×105 cfu per 0.05 ml. The cumulative mortality was observed in high and low dose groups which showed 98.33 and 20 percent, respectively. Moreove...

The genus Aeromonas comprises known virulent and avirulent isolates and has been implicated in waterborne disease. A common infection model of human gastroenteritis associated with A. hydrophila uses neonatal mice. The goal of this research was to evaluate whether a murine small intestinal cell line could provide comparable results to the gene expression changes in the neonatal mouse model. Cha...
