Journal ArticleDOI
Probiotic Bacteria as Biological Control Agents in Aquaculture
TL;DR: This review describes the state of the art of probiotic research in the culture of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and live food, with an evaluation of the results obtained so far.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of phenylurea herbicides on soil microbial communities estimated by analysis of 16S rRNA gene fingerprints and community-level physiological profiles
TL;DR: It is shown that both the structure and metabolic potential of soil microbial communities were clearly affected by a long-term application of urea herbicides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selected bacterial strains protect Artemia spp. from the pathogenic effects of Vibrio proteolyticus CW8T2.
Laurent Verschuere,Hanglamong Heang,Godelieve R. J. Criel,Patrick Sorgeloos,Willy Verstraete +4 more
TL;DR: In vivo antagonism tests and the filtrate experiments showed that probably no extracellular bacterial compounds were involved in the protective action but that the living cells were required to protect Artemia against V. proteolyticus CW8T2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial Control of the Culture of Artemia Juveniles through Preemptive Colonization by Selected Bacterial Strains
TL;DR: This study examined the use of selected bacterial strains to improve the nutritional value of dry food for Artemiajuveniles and to obtain control of the associated microbial community in aquaculture and in the pet shop industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast and sensitive acute toxicity detection with an enrichment nitrifying culture
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple respirometric procedure using an enrichment nitrifying culture was presented for acute nitrification toxicity screening of wastewater, where Allyl thiourea was used as a selective nitrification inhibitor.
