he main aim of this study is to determine the antibiotic profile of

Vibrio

parahaemolyticus

isolated from fin fishes collected from three major

fish landing sites in Chennai, India. A total of 112 fin fish samples were

screened for Gram-negative halophilic bacterium

V.parahaemolyticus

that

included 30 of Red snapper (

Lutjanus campechenus

), 40 of Indian sardine

(

Sardinella longiceps

) and 42 of Rohu (

Labeo Rohita

) on the skin surface was

compared using commonly used antibiotics. Thirty two samples were found

to be positive. To detect the pathogenicity of the identified isolates Kanagawa

reaction was performed. Among 32 isolates, 5 were found to be positive for

Kanagawa reaction. The

in vitro

susceptibility of

V.parahaemolyticus

was

studied by disk diffusion method using disks contained Doxycycline, Ofloxacin,

Cefazolin, Clindamycin, Gentamycin and Chloramphenicol. The isolated

V.parahaemolyticus

strains showed high degree of sensitive to Doxycycline

and Ofloxacin.

Biography

He received his Bachelor of Science (BSc), in field of clinical

microbiology, from the Punjab technical University, Punjab, in

2010. He completed his Master of Science (MSc), in field of

Microbiology, from the Vinayaga mission University, Salem,

Tamilnadu in 2012 and then he joined as a part-time faculty

of microbiology lecturer at Southern college in Chennai.

Presently he is pursuing PhD research scholar (Part-time) in

field of marine biotechnology at AMET University, Chennai.

His research interest is Antibacterial activity of selected

plant extract against Vibrio pathogen specifically on dosage

formulation and drug resistance pattern analysis and his

research also focusing detailed investigations on safety and

toxicity of the plant extracts to confirm their therapeutic efficacy

in suitable vivo model.
