https://ph01.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/vujournal/article/view/248909
<p><strong>Objective: </strong>The amount of organic substance in Pacific white shrimp pond (<em>Litopenaeus vannamei</em>) will accumulate according to time spent on breeding shrimps. This research studied the morphology and COD (Chemical oxygen demand) reduction efficiency of marine actinomycete <em>Streptomyces indiaensis </em>in order to create a guideline for using Actinomycete in wastewater treatment for coastal aquaculture. </p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> The morphology of actinomycete <em>S. indiaensis</em> isolated from a mangrove forest was studied using Gram’s staining method and observed under a light microscope. Actinomycete was cultured in standard ISP2 medium and water from a Pacific white shrimp pond. Then, actinomycete <em>S. indiaensis</em> was used to reduce COD in water from the shrimp pond and compared with not using actinomycete <em>S. indiaensis</em>.</p> <p><strong>Results: </strong>Gram’s staining test revealed that marine actinomycete <em>S.indiaensis</em> is filamentous gram-positive bacteria. Marine actinomycete <em>S. indiaensis</em> could grow in a standard ISP2 medium better than in the shrimp pond water. Thereafter, a reduction of the COD in shrimp pond water was performed. The initial COD concentration in shrimp pond water was 662 mg/L. The use of <em>S. indiaensis</em> was able to reduce the amount of COD in the shrimp pond water in a greater manner than without <em>S. indiaensis</em>. The use of actinomycete had complete COD treatment within 21 days, whereas the comparison without the use of actinomycete could be treated at 78%. The results from this experiment showed that a marine actinomycete</p> <p><em>S. indiaensis</em> was able to reduce COD faster than the native bacteria in the shrimp pond water.</p>Janjarus WatanachoteMayurin LaoarunMaliwan KutakoPakawan SetthamongkolNongnuch RungsawangPaveena TapaneeyaworawongYutthaya Yuyen
