Aeromonas spp. and Infectious Diarrhea, Hong Kong

Bicout’s letter), Bicout shows that more time is required to detect a bioterror attack than when exponential infection growth is assumed (Figure accompanying Bicout’s letter). The number of persons infected over time under the logistic model will be fewer than the number of persons infected if exponential growth is assumed; therefore, screening blood donors to detect a bioterror attack is even ...

Behaviour of Aeromonas spp. after animal passage.

Cytotoxin testing of environmental Aeromonas spp. in Vero cell culture.

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Aeromonas spp. are known to cause a variety of infections in humans and this organism has been isolated from a variety of sources including environmental sources. The pathogenicity of the environmental isolates in and around Vellore has not been studied. This study was conducted to determine the cytotoxicity of the Aeromonas spp. isolated from water bodies, soil sediment...

Antibiotic resistance in clinical and environmental isolates of Aeromonas spp.

Possible virulence factors of Aeromonas spp. from food and water.

Thirty-one isolates of Aeromonas spp. from food and water in Norway were classified and tested for possible virulence factors including cytotoxins (tissue cultures, PCR), enterotoxins (PCR) and invasion ability (Caco-2 cells). Five different species were recorded, A. caviae (9/31), A. hydrophila (15/31), A. schubertii (3/31), A. trota (3/31) and A. veronii biovar veronii (1/31). One of the A. h...
