Abstract
Infections with Aeromonas hydrophila is a progressive problem in aquaculture. The use of antibiotic such as Ciprofloxacine has contributed to the rapid and effective treatment of disease cause by this organism. However the Fast-paced increase of resistance to the Said antibiotics has posed problems and there is now a new approach to look for alternative method to control this bacterial pathogen. Phage therapy comes in as a new method to respond to these growing problems. This study demonstrated the promising action of isolated bacteriophage ΦZH1 and ΦZH2 for therapy against Motile Aeromonas Septicemia in Nile tilapia caused by Aeromonas hydrophila.
