Bacterial load in pond water and different organs of a Indian major carp Cirrhinus mrigala Ham.

During the study period (August, 1993 to July,l994) the mean bacterial load in surfacewater was found to vary from 1.39 xl05 (July'94) to 3.llxl07CFU/ml (September'93),while that of botrom water ranged from l.Olxl06 (May'94) to 5.90xl07CFU/ml (October'93). The mean total number of bacterial load in body slime, liver and kidney was foundto vary from 0.58xl03 (July'94) to 2.37xl07CFU/g (March'94),from 0.22xl03(July'94)to9.64xl06 CFU/g (March'94) from O.l5xl03 (July'94) to 9.36xl06 CFU/g (March'94),respectively. Bacterial load in slime was significantly correlated with bacterial load inliver, bacterial load in slime was significantly correlated with bacterial load in kidney andbacterial load in liver was significantly correlated with bacterial load in kidney.
