The use of Aloe Vera Gel Functionalized Biogenic Zinc-Oxide Nanoparticles Against Fish Putative Pathogens

Indiscriminate uses of antibiotics have resulted in the development of antibiotic-resistance among pathogens which possess a potential risk to the ecosystem, aquaculture and human health.

AVGE-ZnO-NPs showed strong antibacterial activity, against the tested Gram-negative multi-drug resistant bacteria in the disc diffusion assay. The results of the present investigation could be useful for the development of new disease management strategies in the fisheries industry.
