Endophthalmitis caused by Vibrio alginolyticus.
Vibrio alginolyticus is a facultative anaerobic gram-negative bacillus found in normal marine flora. Ocular infections induced by V. alginolyticus are extremely rare. We report a case of endophthalmitis caused by V. alginolyticus to draw attention to V. alginolyticus infections following ocular injuries.
متن کاملVibrio alginolyticus infections in humans.
Two clinical isolates of Vibrio alginolyticus from New Jersey are reported, one from a mixed stump infection and the other grown in pure culture from the conjunctival discharge of a man with conjunctivitis. The biochemical characteristics and antibiotic susceptibilities of these two isolates are presented. Human infections caused by V. alginolyticus are reviewed.
متن کاملIsolation of Vibrio alginolyticus from wound infections.
Vibrio alginolyticus was isolated from two patients with leg wounds. Both had a history of recent exposure to ocean water.
متن کاملCloning and characterization of motX, a Vibrio alginolyticus sodium-driven flagellar motor gene.
Four motor proteins, MotX, MotY, PomA, and PomB, have been identified as constituents of the Na(+)-driven flagellum of Vibrio species. In this study, the complete motX gene was cloned from Vibrio alginolyticus and shown to complement three mot mutations, motX94, motX115, and motX119, as well as a V. parahaemolyticus motX mutant. The motX94 mutant contains a frameshift at Val86 of MotX, while th...
متن کاملExpression, characterization and immunogenicity of a major outer membrane protein from Vibrio alginolyticus.
Vibrio alginolyticus is one of the Vibrio pathogens common to humans and marine animals. During infection and induction of the host immune response, outer membrane proteins of bacteria play an important role. In this study, an outer membrane protein gene (ompW) was cloned from V. alginolyticus and expressed in Escherichia coli. The 645 bp open reading frame (ORF) encodes a protein of 214 amino ...
