Identification of Vibrio Spp. from Cultured Seabass Lates Calcarifer and Their Antibiogram Relationship with Plasmid Profiles
Thirty eight bacteria isolates were recovered from seabass with vibrios is. These isolates were identified using the convention albiochemical tests and the API - 20E system. Most isolates were cream in colour, round, convex and entire. They were grouped into the genus Vibrio with the following...

Summary: | Thirty eight bacteria isolates were recovered from
seabass with vibrios is. These isolates were identified
using the convention albiochemical tests and the API - 20E
system. Most isolates were cream in colour, round, convex
and entire. They were grouped into the genus Vibrio with
the following traits: Gram-negative short rods, motile,
positive catalase and oxidase reactions, fermentative
metabolism towards Hugh and Leifson glucose medium and
ferments D-glucose by producing acid but not gas. Yellow
colonies (identified as Vibrio alginolyticus) and green
colonies (identified as Vibrio parahaemolyticus) were
obtained on TCBS agar. The API - 20 E test strips identified
fifteen isolates as V. parahaemolyticus and twenty three
isolates as V. alginolyticus. Comparative studies between |
