The probiotic Arthrobacter sp. CW9 isolated from guts of white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) was used to improve the survival rate, growth rate and immune status of white shrimp (P. vannamei). Arthrobacter sp. CW9 was added to the saline rearing water at 0, 10(5), 10(6) and 10(7) CFU ml(-1) once every 5 days during the 24-day breeding experiment. The probiotic group had significantly higher survival rates, mean shrimp weights, phenoloxidase activity, phagocytic activity and clearance efficiency compared with the control group (P < 0.05). Therefore, Arthrobacter sp. CW9 has both probiotic and immunostimulatory properties.
