Bacterial flora associated with an organic manure-aquaculture system in Kainji Lake Basin area, Nigeria.
Studies on poultry-cum fish integrated aquaculture system showed contamination of water and fish by faecal and Streptococci coliform, with most probable numbers of 10(5) Fc/100 ml and 10(3) Fc/100 ml respectively. It was also found that both water and fish muscles are contaminated with Pseudomonas sp, Escherichia sp., Aeromonas sp. and Staphylococcus sp. which are of public health significance and could play primary role as occupational disease of fish handlers.
