Abstract

In vitro efficacy of five antibiotics were tested against Streptococcus sp., the causative agent of streptococcal infection in yellowtail. Erythromycin and spiramycin are currentry used to control the disease and had 0.0125-0.39μg/ml minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and 0.2-1.56μg/ml MIC respectively. Josamycin, tylosin and lincomycin currentry not used, had respectively 0.1-0.39μg/ml, 0.1-1.56 μg/, ml 0.0125-0.1μg/ml MIC.<BR>The time to death kinetics using the five antibiotics were studied. Drug resistance to the antibiotics developed after 10 serial passages in the presence of the antibiotic.
