Experience on common carp mass mortality in Japan
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2004)The mortality rate among common carp for food reared in net pens in Lake Kasumigaura, the second largest lake in Japan, in Ibaraki Prefecture, increased from early October 2003 and koi herpesvirus (KHV) was detected in the ... -
Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) test and determination of antimicrobial resistant bacteria
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2004)The agar dilution technique is used to measure qualitatively the in vitro activity of an antimicrobial agent against the test bacteria. In this method, graded amounts of antibiotics are incorporated in agar plates and ... -
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 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 ... -
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 ... -

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 ... -
Progress and current status of diagnostic techniques for marine fish viral diseases at the SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2002)The incidence of unexplained mortalities among marine finfish in the Philippines has been increasingly observed. Considering that outbreaks of viral infections affecting similarly cultured marine fishes such as grouper and ... -
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 ...
