Abstract (Regular, TNR11)
The sustainable development of aquaculture requires novel strategies to improve water quality and fish health. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of nanochitosan-based antimicrobial compounds in inhibiting Aeromonas hydrophila biofilm formation in tilapia culture systems. A randomized controlled experimental design was applied using three concentrations of nanochitosan (25 ppm, 50 ppm, and 100 ppm) in 60 fish tanks over a 21-day period. Biofilm biomass was quantified using crystal violet assay and optical density (OD595 nm), while bacterial counts were verified via qPCR. Results showed a significant reduction in biofilm mass at 50 ppm and 100 ppm treatments (p < 0.05), with dose-dependent antibacterial activity observed. The findings suggest that nanochitosan has strong potential as an eco-friendly biofilm control agent in freshwater aquaculture. Further studies on field-scale application and toxicity assessment are warranted.
