Vibrio harveyi and the 'green water culture' of Penaeus monodon
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2002)
The 'green water culture' of the tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon, is an innovative culture technique for the grow-out rearing of shrimps. This culture method involves the use of rearing water of tilapia for the rearing of ...
Integration of finfish in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) culture: an effective disease prevention strategy
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2002)
A farm trial on integration of finfish (i.e., tilapia) in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) culture was conducted in Negros Occidental, Philippines to prevent luminous vibriosis in shrimp. The farm engaged in shrimp monoculture ...
Selection of probiotics for shrimp and crab hatcheries
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2002)
A study aimed at obtaining a biological control agent against bacterial diseases, specifically luminescent vibriosis, of hatchery-reared shrimps and crabs was done to find an alternative for chemotherapy as a disease ...
Swollen hindgut syndrome (SHG) in hatchery-reared Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
In the course of routine microscopic analysis of hatchery-reared Penaeus monodon postlarvae, several batches were found with hindgut abnormalities not previously described in shrimp postlarvae. The abnormality was named ...
Studies on the efficacy of Sarafin® (sarafloxacin hydrochloride) on vibrios associated with vibriosis in black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon)
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
In vitro activity of Sarafin® (sarafloxacin hydrochloride) was determined against 7 luminous Vibrio harveyi isolates and 3 non-luminous Vibrio species (V. parahaemolyticus, V. alginolyticus and Vibrio species) isolated ...

Quorum sensing and its potential application to vibriosis
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Quorum sensing is a gene regulatory mechanism by which certain pathogenic and symbiotic bacteria respond to population density and host association. By mediating the ability of bacteria such as Vibrio harveyi to infect ...
Growth promotion and enhancement of vibriosis resistance in penaeid shrimp after oral administration of lactic acid bacteria and marine bacteria
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
Vibriosis is one of the most serious problems in the shrimp culture industry worldwide. Antibiotic treatment is becoming less and less effective, as new strains of pathogens evolve, which are resistant to commonly used ...
Prevalence of yellow head virus in cultured black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) from selected shrimp farms in the Philippines
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2002)
The prevalence and geographic distribution of Yellow head virus (YHV) in cultured Penaeus monodon in the Philippines was documented by Western blot assay. Fifty-three out of 219 samples (24.2%) were found to be positive ...
