Vibriosis is a disease that cause massive mortality in aquaculture farming in Asia which is commonly controlled by antibiotic. Since there is antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in vibrio bacterial species, bacteriophage can be an option for fish farmer to treat vibriosis. The objectives of this study were (i) to isolate and identify bacteriophage from different kind of bivalve mollusks (bean clam, carpet clam and wild oyster) in wet market against Vibrio alginolyticus strains and (ii) to determine the host specificity of the isolated phage. Spot test and plaque formation were done to isolate the phages from bivalve mollusks. Then, the isolated phages were identified morphologically using Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM).

Vibriosis is a disease that cause massive mortality in aquaculture farming in Asia which is commonly controlled by antibiotic.
