Aeromonas stool isolates from individuals with or without diarrhea in southern Taiwan: Predominance of Aeromonas veronii.
BACKGROUND Although aeromonads are important pathogens causing invasive infections in southern Taiwan, Aeromonas-associated intestinal infections have been rarely mentioned. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to understand the frequency of isolation and clinical significance of aeromonads recovered from adult stool samples in southern Taiwan. METHODS During a 15-month study period, 514 adult...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms of quinolone resistance in clinical isolates of Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas veronii bv. sobria.
Mutations in quinolone targets were studied together with quinolone efflux pump activation and plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinants in nalidixic-acid-resistant isolates of Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas veronii. Among 135 clinical Aeromonas spp. isolated from stools of patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, 40 nalidixic acid-resistant strains belonging to A. caviae and A. veroni...
متن کاملIn vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical isolates of Aeromonas caviae, Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas veronii biotype sobria.
Sir, The genus Aeromonas comprises 14 species, although its taxonomy has not yet been resolved. The main species considered to be pathogenic in humans are Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas veronii biotype sobria. These species can cause both gastrointestinal and extraintestinal infectious diseases. Aeromonas gastroenteritis is generally self-limiting and, except in immunocomp...
متن کاملMolecular diversity of class 1 integrons in human isolates of Aeromonas spp. from southern Taiwan.
This work studies antimicrobial resistance and class 1 integrons of Aeromonas spp. in human isolates from southern Taiwan. PCR amplification and DNA sequence analyses were performed to characterize the gene cassette regions of the class 1 integron in 204 isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila, 36 isolates of A. sobria, 23 isolates of A. veronii, and 4 isolates of A. caviae. By using Southern hybridiz...
متن کاملDifferent Clinical Characteristics Among Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas veronii biovar sobria and Aeromonas caviae Monomicrobial Bacteremia
This study aimed to compare the clinical presentations of Aeromonas hydrophila, A. veronii biovar sobria and A. caviae monomicrobial bacteremia by a retrospective method at three hospitals in Taiwan during an 8-yr period. There were 87 patients with A. hydrophila bacteremia, 45 with A. veronii biovar sobria bacteremia and 22 with A. caviae bacteremia. Compared with A. hydrophila and A. veronii ...
