Table 4.
Bacterial counts of V. harveyi, V. scophthalmi, and V. anguillarum in microbiological culture medias with graded levels of fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) (CFU/mL).
| Microorganism | 0% | 25% | 50% | 75% | 100% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| V. harveyi | [(3.0 ± 0.50) × 108]b | [(6.1 ± 0.5) × 108]a | — | — | — |
| V. scophthalmi | [(6.4 ± 0.7) × 108]a | [(4.5 ± 0.3) × 108]a | [(1.3 ± 0.0) × 108]b | [(1.3 ± 0.1) × 108]bc | [(9.1 ± 0.8) × 107]c |
| V. anguillarum | [(1.8 ± 0.2) × 108]a | [(2.2 ± 0.3) × 108]a | [(2.1 ± 0.2) × 108]a | [(1.1 ± 0.1) × 108]b | [(2.9 ± 0.2) × 107]b |
Note: Values are means and standard error of three replicate treatments. Values in the same row followed by different superscript letters are significantly different (p < 0.05). The data of V. harveyi was subjected to T-test. Other data were log10 transformed and then subjected to one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Tukey's multiple comparison test.
