Assessment of bacteria and water quality parameters in cage cultured Pangasius hypophthalmus in Temerloh, Pahang River, Malaysia

Pangasius hypophthalmus or famously known by local Malaysians as Patin Hitam is one of the most important sources of food in Malaysia. It is widely cultured in the Peninsular Malaysia especially in Pahang as Patin and is a popularly consumed freshwater fish. Global economic interest in the fish has...

Global economic interest in the fish has increased its demand in the USA and Europe. However, high mortality due to bacterial and viral infections is the main problem that needs to be solved. Therefore, bacteria in P. hypophthalmus in Pahang is being focused with the factors connected to the prevalence of bacteria and virus in P. hypophthalmus.

Bacteria and virus samples were taken from three organs of Patin Hitam which are kidney, liver and spleen. Physical parameters for water quality were measured using a multiparameter probe sensor (YSI, USA) and chemical parameters were analyzed with DR900 colorimeter (Hach, USA). Bacteria samples were identified using biochemical test kits, API 20NE and 20E, followed by confirmation of the bacteria using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Virus samples were identified using conventional PCR. There are several bacteria isolated throughout the culture period.
