The Pathology of the Walking Catfish, Clarias batrachus (L.), Infected Intraperitoneally with Aeromonas hydrophila

Abstract:

Selected organs from Clarias batrachus (L.) fingerlings that were experimentally infected with aeromonas hydrophila were examined. Gross pathology, histopathology and the LD50 are described. Histopathological changes, which included necrosis and hemorrhage in the kidney, liver, pancreas and intestine, were probably associated with the cytotoxin produced by the bacteria.
