“…Серед біоген-них елементів у довкіллі переважають Нітроген і Фо-сфор, які потрапляють у водні об'єкти внаслідок ви-мивання з полів у складі добрив, разом із стоками тваринницьких ферм та селянських господарств, а також з промисловими і комунальними стічними во-дами тощо [3,4].…”

“…Проте в Україні спожива-чам пропонується не більше 3 % безфосфатних з чис-ла існуючих детергентів. До того ж у більшості з них замість фосфатів застосовуються амоніак або іони амонію, тобто нітрогенвмісні біогени, використання яких у недалекому майбутньому знов сприятиме під-вищенню концентрації сполук Нітрогену у водних об'єктах [2,3]. Тому ситуація з біогенними речови-нами, що склалася у нашій країні, вказує на актуаль-ність зазначеної проблеми та необхідність її негайно-го вирішення.…”

“…Так, перевищення ГДК в Нітрогену та Фосфору у водному середовищі може призводити не тільки до отруєння і загибелі гідробіонтів [3,4], але й негатив-но впливати на стан здоров'я населення, яке тим чи іншим чином контактує із забрудненими біогенами природними водами або вживає питну воду відповід-ної якості [5,6].…”

“…Insecticides have been banned in many countries including Oman because of their perceived negative environmental effects, such as the pollution of water resources; deterioration of human health; and the resulting reductions in populations of nontarget species, particularly the natural enemies of DB and because of the relatively high application cost (Ansari, Moraiet, & Ahmad, 2014). Studies have shown that some insecticide residues can persist on date palm fruit for up to 2 months after application (Khan, Azam, & Razvi, 2001), which poses a high risk to both humans and animals.…”

The Dubas bug (Ommatissus lybicus de Bergevin) is a pest species whose entire life cycle occurs on date palms, Phoenix dactylifera L, causing serious damage and reducing date palm growth and yield. Pseudoligosita babylonica Viggiani, Aprostocetus nr. Beatus, and Bocchus hyalinus Olmi are very important parasitic natural enemies of Ommatissus lybicus in northern Oman. In this study, random farms were selected to (a) model the link between occurrences of the Pseudoligosita babylonica, Aprostocetus nr beatus, and Bocchus hyalinus (dependent variables) with environmental, climatological, and Dubas bug infestation levels (the independent variables), and (b) produce distribution and predictive maps of these natural enemies in northern Oman. The multiple R 2 values showed the model explained 63%, 89%, and 94% of the presence of P. babylonica, A. nr beatus, and Bocchus hyalinus, respectively. However, the distribution of each species appears to be influenced by distinct and geographically associated climatological and environmental factors, as well as habitat characteristics. This study reveals that spatial analysis and modeling can be highly useful for studying the distribution, the presence or absence of Dubas bugs, and their natural enemies. It is anticipated to help contribute to the reduction in the extent and costs of aerial and ground insecticidal spraying needed in date palm plantations.

“…In addition, the improper use of the agent might lead to bacteria's antibiotic resistance which may introduce further serious problems in global health (Broszat & Grohmann, 2014). While the appropriate use of the tetracycline antibiotic has been of interest in shrimp aquaculture (Faroongsarng, 2012), the dose regimen for the treatment of A. hydrophila infection in hybrid catfish has not yet been established.…”

The in vitro efficacy of oxytetracycline against re-isolated pathogenicAeromonas hydrophilacarrying the cytolytic enterotoxin gene through hybrid catfish,Clarias macrocephalus(Günther, 1864) ×Clarias gariepinus(Burchell, 1822) in Thailand

Aeromonas hydrophila is a pathogen infecting farmed hybrid catfish, Clarias macrocephalus (Günther, 1864) × Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) which incurs substantial economic losses in Thailand. The study aimed at a genetic tracking of A. hydrophila infection and the in vitro assessment of the efficacy of antibiotics against its virulent strains. Five clinical strains from catfishes and Nile tilapia were employed. They were 3‐passage re‐isolated through healthy hybrid catfish and the cytolytic enterotoxin gene (AHCYTOEN) of individuals was traced. Each of the re‐isolates at a dose of ~6.67 × 105 CFU/g was intraperitoneally injected into ~15 g‐healthy hybrid catfish and their pathogenicity were observed for 7 days. It was found that AHCYTOEN was carried over whereas typical signs of motile aeromonas septicaemia were found in the specimens. The bacterial strains of Nile tilapia origin did not induce mortality but those of catfish origins (80%–100% rate of mortality). The strains were susceptible to the tetracycline antibiotics, and oxytetracycline produced MIC50 and MBC as low as 0.007–0.031 μg/ml and 1–8 μg/ml respectively. As oxytetracycline specifically inhibited pathogenic A. hydrophila in vitro, it is recommended that an appropriate dosage regimen of the drug should be established.
