Antibacterial activity of plant extracts from Brazil against fish pathogenic bacteria

Abstract: The aim of this work was to evaluate the antibacterial activity of Brazilian plants extracts against fish pathogenic bacteria. Forty six methanolic extracts were screened to identify their antibacterial properties against Streptococcus agalactiae, Flavobacterium columnare and Aeromonas hydrophila. Thirty one extracts showed antibacterial activity.

“…The use of antibiotics is the main treatment to control bacterial illness, and this results in development of resistant bacteria (Castro et al, 2008). In available references we did not find studies on the antibacterial activity of royal jelly, rape honey, and royal jelly and rape honey mix against A. hydrophila (ATCC 7965).…”

“…The use of antibiotics is the main treatment applied to control bacterial illness in fish farms. In order to the use of a wide variety of antibiotics, aquaculture has been implicated as potential environment to the development and selection of resistant bacteria and a source of these pathogens to other animals and humans (6,12). For instance, the development of antibiotic resistance was reported in Aeromonas hydrophila, A. salmonicida, Edwardsiella tarda, E.…”

“…The repetitive use of antibiotics in different fields (veterinary and human medicine) improves the emergence and occurrence of the resistance phenomenon in pathogenic bacteria. Some fish bacterial pathogens are also associated to diseases in humans (zoonotic or food borne diseases), making the aquaculture products as a potential risk to the customers (6). Regarding the problem of Tukmechi, A. et al…”

“…Due to the use of a wide variety of antibiotics, aquaculture has been implicated as potential environment to the development and selection of resistant bacteria and a source of these pathogens to other animals and humans [1,3] . The adoption of same antibiotics in different fields (veterinary and human medicine) improves the emergence and occurrence of the resistance phenomenon.…”
