Current fish disease problems in the Philippines and their economic impact
(1987)
An account is given of fish disease problems facing the aquaculture industry in the Philippines. The Laguna de Bay fish kills that occurred in December 1985 and February 1986, involving epizootic ulcerative syndrome of ...
Bacterial exoskeletal lesions of the tiger prawn Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Tank- and pond-reared Penaeus monodon with exoskeletal lesions were examined. The incidence rate was up to 36% for broodstock in concrete tanks and to 20% for pond-reared prawns. The increase in disease incidence was related ...
Bacterial studies of epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) outbreak in the Philippines
(Aquatic Animal Health Research Institute, 1994)
Epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) is a disease of wild and cultured freshwater fishes in Asia and IndoPacific (Roberts et al., 1986; Lilley et al., 1992). In the Philippines, the first confirmed EUS outbreak is reported ...
Studies on the sources of luminescent Vibrio harveyi in Penaeus monodon hatcheries
(Asian Fisheries Society, Fish Health Section, 1992)
One of the major problems in the otherwise highly successful Penaeus monodon hatchery industry in the Philippines is the occurrence of luminescent bacterial disease due to Vibrio harveyi. The possible sources of the bacteria ...
New developments in marine prawn disease research in south east Asia.
(Malaysian Fisheries Society. Occasional Publication No. 6, 1992)
Researches on marine shrimp diseases for the past three years centered primarily on the diagnosis and control of viral and bacterial infections as well as nutritional, toxic and environmental diseases. Diagnostic techniques ...
Bacterial diseases of penaeid shrimps: An Asian view
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 1995)
In the past 5 Yr, bacterial diseases have become limiting factors in penaeid culture systems, their effects becoming directly proportional to the growth of the industry in terms of severity and imoact. Although eight ...
Establishment of method managing aquaculture environments to allow sustainable production
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2001)
This paper briefly discusses the more important diseases in fish and shrimp culture in the Philippines. Although still at its infancy stage, recent trends in disease prevention and control are also presented.
Siderophore detection among bacteria associated with the epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS)
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 1995)
Sixteen isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila andone isolate each of Aeromonas sp. n., Aquaspirillum sp., Pseudomonas sp., and Streptococcus sp., isolated from normal, apparently normal and epizootic ulcerative syndrome ...
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 ...
Will microbial manipulation sustain the ecological balance in shrimp (Penaeus monodon) hatcheries?
(National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 1998)
A shift in preferred methods employed to contain bacterial diseases in the hatchery phase of shrimp culture has resulted largely from the unsuccessful control by and deleterious effects of chemotherapy. Manipulation of ...
