[Method] Different concentrations of EM (effective microorganisms) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens were mixed at a ratio of 1:1, and sprayed on fish feed. The growth of intestinal villi of the fishes that had been fed with the feed mixed with compound probiotics for three months was observed; meanwhile, the content of in- testinal Aeromonas hydrophila was detected by real-time quantitative PCR. |Result] The compound probiotics promoted the development of intestinal villi, and inhibited the growth of A. hydrophila, and the effects were also concentration dependent. However, the compound probiotics did not increase the thickness of the intestinal serous layer, muscular layer and submucosal layer. [Conclusion] The compound probiotics we prepared can be used and popularized in aquiculture as it can inhibit the growth of A. hydrophila.展开更多

Four strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated and identified with traditional biochemical identification method and modern molecular biological identification techniques. According to the results, four strains of pathogenic bacteria were identified as A. veronii biovar sobria. Drug sensitivity test and in vitro antimicrobial test against Bacillus amyloliquefaciens were performed with agar diffusion method. The results showed that B. amyloliquefaciens and several antibiotics such as ofloxacin and gentamicin exerted strong antimicrobial effects on four isolates. B. amyloliquefaciens could be used for the prevention and control of diseases caused by A. veronii in aquaculture.展开更多
