Microbial Flora of Artificial Fish Diets

Fish Pathology, 1976
Twenty different fish diets marketed in Japan were examined for the microbial flora.The total counts of aerobic bacteria determined at 30°C ranged from 1.8×103 to 8.0×105 pergram of diet with a mean value of 1.4×105. The microflora of these diets were consisted mainly of Gram-positive bacteria, and the most predominant organisms belong to the genus ...
