Fish disease is a major stumbling block towards sustainable growth of the fisheries sector.
Aeromonas hydrophila, which is a major infectious aquatic pathogen is reportedly the
causative agent of ulcers, fin-rot, tail-rot, hemorrhagic septicemia in fish, and has reportedly
developed resistance against many of the available antibiotics. In this context, the inhibitory
function of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) against A. hydrophila was studied to evaluate its
possible application in aquaculture as alternative to antibiotics. AgNPs were synthesized …
