Abstract:

The present investigations were designed to estimate the content of protein and DNA and to understand the histopathology in muscle and gill of fish infected with repeated doses of A. liquefaciens. Two varied multiple doses of pathogen, 10-2 + 10-2 CFU/Fish and 10-3 + 10-3 CFU / Fish were injected intramuscularly to two different groups of fish A and B (66 in each group) respectively; two groups a and b were served as controls for comparison. Muscle and gill were selected for studying the content of protein and DNA and for histopatholgoical changes

Keywords:

Aeromoniasis, protien, DNA, gill, muscle, fish.
