“…These results were similar to the findings obtained in previous studies (Wakabayashi et al, 1996;Sukenda and Wakabayashi, 2000;Park and Nakai, 2003). This is the first study to describe the histopathological features of BHA in experimentally infected fish.…”

“…In the previous studies, ayu were successfully infected with P. plecoglossicida by various methods, that is, immersion (Sukenda and Wakabayashi, 2000), intraperitoneal injection (Wakabayashi et al, 1996), intramuscular injection and oral administration (Park and Nakai, 2003). However, the pathological effects of these experimental infections were unclear because of a lack of histopathological examinations.…”

“…No licensed chemotherapeutics such as antibiotics are effective against BHA. However, success in controlling BHA has been achieved experimentally with vaccination and specific bacteriophages (Sukenda and Wakabayashi, 1999;Ninomiya and Yamamoto, 2001;Park and Nakai, 2003).…”

-Histopathology of experimentally infected ayu Plecoglossus altivelis with bacterial hemorrhagic ascites (BHA) was studied in order to determine its histopathological features. Fish (2.3 g in average weight, n=108) were infected with Pseudomonas plecoglossicida by immersion (IM) (ca. 10 7 CFU/mL), intraperitoneal injection (IPI) (ca. 10 4 and 10 7 CFU/fish) and intramuscular injection (IMI) (ca. 10 4 and 10 7 CFU/fish). The cumulative mortalities ranged from 92.9 to 100%.In the IM challenge groups, necrotic lesions accompanied by edema, fibrin deposition and hemorrhage were observed in the splenic and hematopoietic tissues. In some fish, the liver had necrotic lesions and microabscesses. In both the IPI and IMI challenge groups, lesions of the spleen and kidney were similar to those of the IM challenge groups. In addition, necrotic lesions and hemorrhage in the abdominal adipose tissue and pancreas were often observed in the IPI challenge groups. In the IMI challenge groups, the infected fish had definite lesions of the musculature at the injected site. The results revealed that the lesion formation in the spleen and kidney was the main pathological changes of BHA in ayu.

“…Park andNakai (2003), demonstrated the efficacy of Bacteriophage control of Pseudomonas plecoglossicida infection in ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis). Karunasagar et al, 2005 showed the efficacy of bacteriophages to control luminous bacterial disease in shrimp hatcheries by reducing the number of V. harveyi counts in water and in larvae and tremendously improved larval survival.…”

“…Many studies have shown the efficacy of bacteriophage therapy against pathogenic bacteria in humans and animals, such as Campylobacter and Salmonella infections (6,13,20), as well as infections of burn wounds and skin caused by Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, Klebsiella, Proteus, E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes (7,11,17,25) and Pseudomonas plecoglossicida (24).…”

SummaryThe aim of the study was to evaluate the antibacterial activity of selected bacteriophages obtained from poultry against selected Shiga-positive Escherichia coli strains isolated from calves under in vitro conditions. Eight bacteriophages of the families Myoviridae and Siphoviridae, isolated from different poultry housing systems in south-eastern Poland, were used in the experiment. Bacteriophage morphology was examined with a transmission electron microscope on negative-stained slides with 2% silicotungstate. The range of lytic activity against Shiga-toxin-producing strains of E. coli was determined by a plaque assay on double-layer top agar plates. Twelve Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli strains isolated from calves were obtained from the National Veterinary Research Institute in Puławy (Department of Hygiene of Food of Animal Origin), and nine of our own strains were collected from calves with clinical signs of diarrhoea in the Lublin region. The results obtained showed that the phages specific to E. coli isolated from poultry express strong lytic antibacterial properties against Shiga-positive E. coli isolated from calves. These phages exhibited complete lysis of E. coli strains on double-layer agar plates. This result confirms the lack of a species barrier in the antibacterial activity of bacteriophages, which suggests their usefulness in eliminating E. coli infections in cattle.
