Isolation, identification and antibiotic resistance of enterobactericeae from shrimp ponds in Kuala Baram, Miri, Sarawak

Antibiotics have been widely used to control bacterial pathogens of aquaculture products. Aquaculture is becoming more economically important to increase local fish and shrimp production for food security. Thus, antimicrobial drugs are therefore used to tackle the disease problems and in some cases,...
