The antimicrobial activity of Artemisia princeps var. orientalis essential oil against a partial fish pathogenic bacteria was examined. The growth of Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas salomonicida, Aeromonas sorbia, Edwardsiella tarda and Streptococcus sp. (yellowtail) were inhibited at concentrations of 1,000 to 2,000 ppm. The A. salmonicida was inhibited at 1,000 ppm, A. hydrophila, A. sorbia, E, tarda and Streptococcus sp. (yellowtail) at 1,500 ppm, but Vibrio anguillarum, Vibrio ordalii, Edwardsiella ictaluri and Streptococcus sp. (SF 1) were grown on 100-2,000 ppm.
