Effects Elecitors on Prophenonoloxidase and Superoxide Anion Activities of Freshwater Prawn, Macrobrachium malcolmsonii
The prophenoloxidase and superoxide anion activity of haemocyte lysate
supernatant (HLS) from Indian River Prawn (Macrobrachium malcolmsonii) were
examined by treating HLS with various factors such as an increase in temperature
from 25 to 60�C and elicitors such as ß-1,3 -1, 6-glucan, zymosan, levamisole,
vitamin C, vitamin E and trypsin. The strongest PO activity was induced at 50�C
followed by 45�C. The glucan, zymosan, vitamin C and vitamin E showed higher
HLS prophenolase activity, whereas levamisole and trypsin showed lower HLS
prophenolase activity relative to the control. In vitro elicitor zymosan showed the
maximum percentage of average relative PO activity (272.0%) followed by glucan
(215.0%). Levamisole showed maximum percentage elevation (33.4%) of superoxide
anion, followed by glucan (25.98%), vitamin E (16.34%), vitamin C (14.87%), trypsin
(9.56%) and zymosan (7.0%) respectively
Antagonistic activity of cellular components of Pseudomonas species against Aeromonas hydrophila
Antagonistic effects of Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. aeruginosa and P. putida were studied against 12 strains of Aeromonas
hydrophila (Ah1–Ah12). Four different fractions of cellular component (i.e. whole cell product, heat killed whole cell product,
intra cellular product and extra cellular product) of all Pseudomonas species were equally effective in reducing growth of A.
hydrophila strains, as measured by the zone of inhibition in an in vitro sensitivity test and have potential action against A.
