Abstract

The isolation and enumeration of pathogenic bacteria from shrimp farms in Samutprakarn Province were carried out from October 1983 to December 1984. A total of 306 specimens including 139 samples of water, 144 samples of sediments and 23 samples of shrimp were investigated. The enteropathogenic bacteria isolated were Vibrio parahaemolyticus, V. alginolyticus, V. fluvialis, Non 01 Vibrio cholerae, Samonella spp., Aeromonas hydrophila, A. sobria and Plesiomonas shigelloides, but the numbers were not higher than the standard level. The result may be used as a composition to indicate the water quality an the quality of natural water resources effecting to the safety for consumer and also exportation.
