Consequently, many aquaculture farms in
Vietnam are highly intensive to increase the yield
per area unit. An important factor that affects
the yield is disease outbreaks, which in turn are
irritated by the high stock density of intensive
<i>farming (Subasinghe et al., 2001; Nguyen and </i>
Ford, 2010). In attempt to protect farms and
<b>INTRODUCTION</b>
Vietnam is known as a country providing
the large amount of aquatic product with the
third ranked in the world (Tran Van Hoa, 2016).
While many aquatic products are exported, the
demand in domestic markets is also high as a
necessary part of the daily diet of Vietnamese.

sulfamethoxazole and sulfadimidine (Pham
Kim Dang et al., 2015). The antibiotic
resistance patterns of bacteria are influenced
by selective pressure; thus, may be different
in other geographical areas and may vary over
<i>time (Parveen et al., 1999). Due to the lack of </i>
regulation, there is very little information about
antibiotics used in aquaculture for almost rivers
in Vietnam, especially in Ho Chi Minh city and
surrounding regions. That is the reason why
Sai Gon - Dong Nai river, which is known as
the main river system in the area with many
aquatic farms and industrial areas along the
river, is considered the antibiotic residue and
appearance of the drug – resistant bacteria
related to the aquaculture activity (Vietnam
Environment Administration, 2016).
It is known that Dong Nai river system
passes through Ho Chi Minh city and other
provinces and have more than 250 rivers and
streams of over 10km each. The basin system
is reach with copious minerals resources
and covered by tropical forests with a great
biodiversity of tropical ecosystems, which
help to protect the area from flood in the rainy
season and maintain water lever for Dong Nai
river in the dry season. Fast urbanization, high
rate of the population growth and the rapid of
improve yields, farmers must use antibiotics
to prevent and treat diseases for animals.
Hence, aquaculture productions become one
of the main sources of pollution of veterinary
<i>medicines into the environment (Pruden et </i>
<i>al., 2013; Rico and Van den Brink, 2014). </i>
As a result, many water resources have been
rendered unwholesome and dangerous to man
<i>and other living organism systems (Bakare et </i>
<i>al., 2003).</i>
In additionally, awareness of utilizing
antibiotics in aquatic ecosystems is improving
increase in many countries around the world.
Recently, Vietnam has also published new
regulations to prevent ungoverned antibiotic
usage in domestic aquaculture (Official
Decision No. 2625 / QD-BNN-TY, 21/6/2017).
However, the antibiotic usage surveillance
in livestock and aquaculture in the local
areas is still not effective enough which
causes concerns for antibiotic resistance in
pathogenic microorganism. Bacteria cultured
from the collected water sources were tested
for resistance against antibiotics (Tetracycline,
Ampicillin, Kanamycin and Chloramphenicol)
and effect with short term exposure (Pham Kim
<i>Dang et al.,2015). The resistance was displayed </i>
against the antibiotics tested among the bacteria
cultured from the water. This may indicate that
the existence of antibiotic residue could enter in
the aquatic systems and cause a potential threat
to ecosystem function and influence on human
health (Costanzo SD et al., 2004). Potential
consequences of antibiotic use in animal feeds
are the development of drug– resistant bacteria,
resistance transfer to pathogenic bacteria, and
reduced efficiency of antibiotic treatment for
animal diseases caused by resistant pathogens
(Frappaolo and Guest, 1986). It is worth
samplings were collected near waterfront while
the others were directly taken at the middle of
the stream using a bottle tied with a 2-meters
string. Three samples (500ml of water for each
sample) at each place were taken into the sterile
screw – capped bottles to preserve the sample
in cold bag until transported to the laboratory
for analysis. The samples were transported to
laboratory for the isolation procedure within
2-3 hours.
<b>MATERIAL AND METHOD</b>
<b>Sampling</b>
The sampling sites were chosen based on
aquaculture activity along the river, extended
from upstream to downstream. The water
samples were taken at four locations: Nam Cat
Tien forest, Sai Gon river (district 2 and Thu Duc
district), La Nga district and Can Gio district
(Figure 1). At the Nam Cat Tien rorest, the

<b>Isolation procedure</b>
A 1-ml portion of water samples was
suspended in 9ml of 0.85% NaCl, and 7 –
fold serial dilutions were prepared in 0.85%
NaCl. Portion (0.1 ml) of each dilution were
inoculated onto Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA) and
MacConkey (Mac) agar plates and incubate
for 18 – 24h at 300<sub>C (Ehsan, 2015). After </sub>
incubated, each different colony, which based
on the morphologies were recovered from each
plate, was streaked into new medium agar
plate to isolate purify and single colony. TSA
plates were utilizing to evaluate a bacterial
concentration. Each isolated colony was
examined by gram staining and morphology
under microscope to preliminary choose the
gram – negative bacteria.

1966). The isolates were tested for sensitivity
to four antibiotics applied with the different
dosage for each (µg/ml): Ampicillin (AMP)
(10), Kanamycin (KAN) (30), Tetracyline (30),
and Chloramphenicol (30). The plates were
incubated 24h at 30o<sub>C. The result considered </sub>

<b>Antibiotic sensitivity testing</b>
A total of 20 bacteria colonies were
isolated to purified strains of gram – negative
bacteria. The Kit was used to identify the
microorganism. The final steps were examined
antibiotic susceptibility with four types of drug:
Ampicillin, Chloramphenicol, Kanamycin and
Tetracycline.
Table 5 shows the stations particularly with
the amount of antibiotic resistance strains
isolated from each place. The resultshown15
isolated strains from all sampling locations resist
to at least one type of antibiotic. Particularly, La
Nga Village which was the main farmed fishing,
had the highest number isolated microorganism
(8 strains) accompany five were resistant to
antibiotic. The other places had less the resistant
strains than La Nga District.

the disease. In recent years, Ho Chi Minh city is
facing the serious pollution, including the water
source. The wastewater that is discharged from
daily activities of citizens is very big quantity
(1.750.000 m3<sub>/day by the report of Vietnam </sub>
Meteorological and Hydrology Administration,
2017). Nevertheless, a little part of water raw
is treated before going into canals, rivers or
seas. By the report of Vietnam Environment
Administration in 2016, the concentration of
antibiotic in Saigon – Dong Nai river water
is not high, however those antibiotics have
moved and accumulate mainly in downstream
sediments of Sai Gon and Dong Nai river
basins. The accumulation of those antibiotics in
the river sediment for a long time can cause the
local bacteria gradually resisting to those drugs.
Those things can make the consideration to
human health because the water from Dong Nai
river, especially Sai Gon river (upstream river),
is providing supplies to over 20 million citizens
of Ho Chi Minh city and surrounding regions.
In this study, 20 strains of gram – negative
bacteria were isolated, after eliminated three
strains of gram – positive organism at four
locations throughout the Sai Gon - Dong
Nai river. This is a respectable result for the
continuous steps in this project. In theory, among
the four sampling places, only La Nga district
and Can Gio district have the strong aquaculture
activities nearly connect with antibiotics, the
ratio of antibiotic resistant bacteria should be

<b>Discussion</b>
The samples were taken at four locations
with distinct feature leads the bacteria were
isolated differently. Although the pH value
might not affect to the number increasing or
<i>decreasing of the bacteria (Toroglu et al., 2005), </i>
the salinity could be agent that cause the unlike
microorganism between Can Gio district and
the other places. For instance, at the first and
second station, the genus of the microorganism
<i>is the same of Vibrio sp and Serratia sp, but </i>
at the fourth station (Can Gio), there are the
<i>Vibrio sp in small number and the existence of </i>
<i>the Pseudomonas sp. This may the outcome of </i>
the high value in the salinity. During the high
or low salinity period, species of bacteria could
not disperse to survive either with the difficulty
in reproduction (Mills and Geddes 1980) or
dormant burgeon further (Williams 1985; Brock
<i>et al., 2003). </i>
bacteria with high resistant to antibiotics may
cause a lot of problems for the population in the
future. There will be further study to research
specific strains by modern technology to detect
exactly the gene of bacteria and also resistance
genes for the scientists to find out the solutions
for every specific problem. Finally, the
utilization of antibiotics for animals and people
should be restricted to prevent the multiple drug
– resistance.
