The training course invited well-known experts from FAO, Asia Pacific aquaculture center network (NACA), Mississippi State University, Institute of Aquatic Sciences of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai Ocean University, Pearl River Fisheries Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences and other units to give lectures and seminars. More than 140 students from 9 countries such as Vietnam, India, Indonesia and Cambodia participated in the video training.
Zhujiang Institute is one of the candidates of FAO aquaculture biosecurity and antimicrobial drug resistance reference center. Associate researcher Deng Yuting, a member of the expert group of the reference center, was invited to participate in this technical training course, focusing on sample pretreatment, bacterial isolation and identification, bacterial preservation technology Drug sensitivity test methods, data recording and management were taught. During the training course, the operation demonstration was also carried out by playing five relevant videos produced by his team. Representatives of all countries agreed that the training content was specific, practical and operable, which was of great significance to establish and improve the monitoring system of bacterial drug resistance in aquaculture and promote the use and management of antibiotics in countries in the Asia Pacific region.
