Laboratory manual of standardized methods for antimicrobial sensitivity tests for bacteria isolated from aquatic animals and environment
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center., 2004)
The manual is one of the important outputs of a collection of studies related to antibiotic usage in order to come up with guidelines for its prudent usage. It offers a complete guide for testing bacterial susceptibility ...
Bacterial isolation, identification and storage
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2004)
Bacterial isolation, purification and identification are the first steps to bacteriological studies. Isolation is done to obtain pure bacterial cultures. Bacteria are usually isolated from fish kidney and spleen; and from ...
Disk diffusion method
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2004)
Disk diffusion method is based on the principle that antibiotic-impregnated disk, placed on agar previously inoculated with the test bacterium, pick-up moisture and the antibiotic diffuse radially outward through the agar ...
Bacterial diseases
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2004)
Bacteria are very common in the aquatic environment. Most bacterial disease agents are part of the normal flora of the water. They cause disease only when the fish are stressed due to poor environmental conditions, inadequate ...
In vitro investigation of the anti-koi herpesvirus (KHV) effect of different disinfectants
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2005-03)
One cause of the rapid spread of koi herpesvirus (KHV) is the trade of live ornamental fish. One way of preventing the spread of the disease is through proper hygiene. This study was done to investigate the virucidal effects ...
Mechanism of control of luminous vibriosis in shrimp-finfish integrated water system
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2005-03)
The disease due to luminous bacteria has been a major problem of the shrimp (Penaues monodon) industry. Different technologies have been introduced to prevent the occurrence of luminous bacteria in shrimp ponds. In the ...
Establishment of preventive measures against viral nervous necrosis (VNN) in finfish hatcheries
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2005-03)
The establishment of preventive measures against viral nervous necrosis (VNN) at the finfish hatcheries of SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department in Iloilo, Philippines, was instituted primarily to minimize the impact of the viral ...
Experimental evaluation of probiotics as biocontrol/bioremediation in the rearing of shrimp (Penaeus monodon)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2005-03)
Two hundred fifty-liter (250-L) fiberglass tanks each equipped with 15-L capacity filter tanks are adequate for screening of commercial probiotics. The application of some commercial probiotics in the culture water is more ...
