Bacterial skin microflora of eel obtained from Mugla (Turkey) province were studied. The aero- bic bacteria associated with skin and slime were estimated using the dilution plate technique. The dominant bacterial species were Pseudomonas spp. (17.23%), Acinetobacter baumannii (15.51%) and Stenotroph...

Description
Summary:Bacterial skin microflora of eel obtained from Mugla (Turkey) province were studied. The aero- bic bacteria associated with skin and slime were estimated using the dilution plate technique. The dominant bacterial species were Pseudomonas spp. (17.23%), Acinetobacter baumannii (15.51%) and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (12.05%). A lower frequency of Gram-positive bacteria (18.93%) was found in samples.
