Chironomids (Diptera: Chironomidae), also known as non-biting midges, are one of the most abundant groups of insects in aquatic habitats. They undergo a complete metamorphosis of four life stages of which three are aquatic (egg, larva, and pupa), and the adult emerges into the air. Chironomids serve as a natural reservoir of Aeromonas and Vibrio cholerae species. Here, we review existing knowle...

متن کاملCharacterization of mercury-resistant clinical Aeromonas species
Mercury-resistant Aeromonas strains isolated from diarrhea were studied. Resistance occurs via mercuric ion reduction but merA and merR genes were only detected in some strains using PCR and dot hybridization. Results indicate a high variability in mer operons in Aeromonas. To our knowledge, this is the first report of mercury-resistant clinical Aeromonas strains.
متن کاملGrowth of Aeromonas species on enteric agars.
The efficacy of eight routine enteric agars for supporting the growth of 32 strains of Aeromonas spp. (17 A. hydrophila strains, 8 A. sobria strains, and 7 A. caviae strains) was investigated. The plating efficiency of Aeromonas spp. on these media varied greatly (range, 0 to 100%), as did their colony size when compared with that on noninhibitory medium (5% sheep blood agar). Plating efficienc...
