A 90‐day experiment was conducted by rearing 1020 prawn juveniles (0.54 ± 0.03 g) in water supplemented with three different concentrations of probiotic bacteria viz. T1 (107 cfu L−1), T2 (108 cfu L−1), T3 (109 cfu L−1) and the control (C) (unsupplemented water), to evaluate probiotic effect of Lactobacillus plantarum. In the present study, the growth parameters (WG%, SGR) and feed utilization parameters (FCR, PER) significantly improved (P < 0.05) in T3. The growth and feed utilization parameters though improved marginally in T1 and T2, the difference was not significant (P > 0.05) compared to the control. The gastro‐intestinal Lactobacillus sp. count increased significantly (P < 0.05) in all the treatment groups, whereas the decrease in harmful bacteria was significant (P < 0.05) in T3 compared to the control. Similarly, the Lactobacillus sp. count in culture water increased significantly (P < 0.05) in all the experimental groups, whereas the decrease in harmful bacteria was significant (P < 0.05) in T2 and T3. The immune parameters (THC, PO and RB activity) and clearance efficiency significantly improved (P < 0.05) in T3 with concurrent decrease (P < 0.05) in cumulative mortality against Aeromonas hydrophila challenge. However, water quality did not improved (P > 0.05) in any of the treatment groups. The results indicate that Lactobacillus plantarum at a minimum concentration of 109 cfu L−1 could be used as water additive to confer its probiotic effect in prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii. Moreover, future studies with higher probiotic concentrations should be conducted for its efficient commercial scale field application.

“…Selain itu, penelitian lain menyebutkan bahwa Bacillus merupakan salah satu kelompok bakteri yang telah dimanfaatkan sebagai bakteri probiotik di bidang akuakultur. Beberapa penelitian telah menunjukkan bahwa bakteri kelompok Bacillus sebagai probiotik secara signifikan dapat meningkatkan kualitas air (Nimrat et al, 2011;Nimrat et al, 2012), rasio konversi pakan (FCR), laju pertumbuhan (SGR), rasio konversi protein (PER) (Merrifield et al, 2010), peningkatan respons imun dan resistensi terhadap penyakit (Li et al, 2009).…”

This study aimed to analyze the genetic diversity of bacteria associated in bioflocs using 16S-rRNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with ARDRA technique. A total of 38 dominant bacterial isolates was obtained from bioflocs samples and of these isolates, 16S-rRNA gene was then isolated and amplified using PCR. The 16S-rRNA gene of the isolates was then cut using HaeIII (5'-GG↓CC) and HhaI (5'-GCG↓C) restriction enzymes resulting an ARDRA pattern which was further used as the binary data for the construction of phylogenetics tree that was used to estimate the group of bacteria. The result with HaeIII cut restriction enzyme from biofloc-associated bacteria gave 11 ARDRA patterns, while with the restriction enzyme HhaI gave eight ARDRA patterns. Phylogenetics of bacterial populations from biofloc-based cultivation system water consisted of at least 13 different bacterial species. Result of sequencing from two gene sample 16S-rRNA were identified as Microbacterium foliorumand and Pseudomonas putida.

“…Mohapatra et al (2012) used B. subtilis, L. lactis, and S. cerevisiae as feed probiotics given to Labeo rohita fingerlings, which exhibited a higher growth, protein efficiency ratio, nutrient retention, and digestibility. Studies on ornamental fish, Astronotus ocellatus fingerlings, and juveniles of M. rosenbergii and Litopenaeus vannamei, using commercial probiotics products, obtained the same results (Firouzbakhsh et al, 2011;Rahiman et al, 2010;Nimrat et al, 2012). Antagonistic activity of probiotic bacteria against various pathogenic strains of bacterium in salmonids, gilthead sea bream (S. aurata), sea bass (D. labrax), sole (S. solea), and meagre (A. regius) has been reported (Korkea-aho et al, 2012;Sorroza et al, 2012).…”

Shrimp aquaculture is the fastest growing animal food producing sectors in the world due to its high demand in developed countries; however, they are affected by diseases mainly caused by opportunistic pathogens results in huge economic losses. Today preventive and management measures are central concern to overcome such outbreak of diseases. The adverse effect of chemotherapeutics in shrimp farming has drawn attention for the development of non-antibiotic and environment friendly agents, which is one of the key factors for health management in shrimp aquaculture. In recent years, application of probiotics against virus and bacteria in shrimp farming had been a novel and safe approach since they promote the innate immune response. Probiotics for bacterial diseases like vibriosis is well reported, but for viral diseases, the authentic strains still need research. Apart from the discovery of new or better formulations, improvement in the probiotic benefits may be helpful. Thus, better and economic production methods, administration ways or combination with other preventive/therapeutic measures are welcomed. Further studies are still necessary to increase the knowledge about use of probiotics to control bacterial infections in shrimp but much more efforts are needed in the case of viral diseases. In this review, potential application of probiotics in shrimp aquaculture: importance, mechanisms of action and methods of administration are being focused. The article also explains the limitations and prospects of probiotics in sustainable and ecofriendly shrimp culture to augment the total shrimp aquaculture production.
