AB  - As a major pathogen for fish, the antimicrobial activity of Diallyl Disulfide (DADS) was examined for the following bacteria, <I>Aeromonas hydrophila</I>, <I>A. salmonicida</I> ssp. <I>masoucida</I>, <I>A. salmonicida</I> ssp. <I>salmonicida</I>, <I> Edwardsiella tarda</I>, <I> Vibrio vulnificus</I>, <I> V. paraheamolyticus</I> and <I> L. anguillarum</I>. About 10 ug mL<SUP>-1</SUP> and more of DADS formed a clear inhibitory zone to all pathogenic bacteria in a disk diffusion test. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) values were in the ranges of 160-640 and 640-1280 ug mL<SUP>-1</SUP> of DDS, respectively. The most sensitive pathogen to DDA was <I>V. vulnificus</I> (160 ug mL<SUP>-1</SUP> for MIC and 640 ug mL<SUP>-1</SUP> for MBC) followed by <I>E. tarda</I> (320 ug mL<SUP>-1</SUP> for MIC and 640 ug mL<SUP>-1</SUP> for MBC). These results suggest bioavailability of DADS for controlling bacterial pathogens in aquaculture.
