dc.descriptionThe following research isolated and identifi ed the main bacterial groups present in the culture of juvenile Nile tilapia in the presence of bi oflocs and/or periphyton. Th e strains were also tested for the production of exoenzymes, indicative of potential virulence factors, and ability to form biofilm. The water samples were taken from tilapia cultured in the presence of bioflocs (T1), in the presence of bioflocs and periphyton (T2), from traditional culture (T3) and from culture in the presence of periphyton (T4). In the growth and selection of the bacterial groups, po ur plate method was used, along with the following media: Plate Count Agar (PCA - DIFCO), Aero Pseu do Selective Agar (GSP - Himedia) and Nutrient Agar (AN - Merck). 46 strains were is olated in the following distributi on: T1 (n = 12); T2 (n = 10); T3 (n = 14) and T4 (n = 10). Among the isolates, the most frequent genera were: Pseudomonas spp., Aeromonas spp., Staphylococcus spp., Bacillus spp., Mycobacterium spp., Micrococcus spp., and Corybacterium spp. Bacterial isolates in treatments T1 and T3 tested positive for five virulence profiles each, while those isolated from T2 and T4 for two and three virulence profiles, respectively. Treatments in bioflocs and periphyton (T2) or only periphyton (T4) yielded bacteria of less pathogenic potentials. In relation to the fish growth, T1 and T4 result ed in a higher final weight.
