Study of bacterial loading in macrophage cells of hybrid catfish

Author: 
Somsiri, T.; Crumlish, M.; Dumrongphol, Y.; Panbanpeaw, A; Thompson, K.D.

Hybrid catfish farming has developed very successfully in Thailand over the last 10 years. Farmers, however, are still encountering disease problems and as a result, face economic loss. Some disease problems are associated with inadequate farm managment practices. This study was carried out to investigate the presence of bacteria in macrophage cells isolated from hybrid catfish cultured in different environmental conditions. Results from farm investigations showed that the percentage of macrophages containing intracellular bacteria was related to particular water quality paramers.

Showcase 9: Tackling fish losses along the marketing chain.

This series of two-page briefs highlights some of the new technologies and processes available, in order to inspire practitioners and policy-makers to put them to use. This one describes how three new tools are helping to show the
extent of fish losses which occur between
fisher and consumer and where and how they
happen. Knowing the size and nature of these
losses is the first step towards preventing
them.
