Occurrence of potential pathogenic Aeromonas species in tropical seafood,
Background: The genus Aeromonas include gram-negative, motile, facultative anaerobic, rod shaped and oxidase positive bacteria comprising several species, associated with the aquatic environment. Aeromonas species have been implicated in human pathogenesis and are linked with gastroenteritis, muscle infections, septicemia, and skin diseases. In fish they are renowned as enteric pathogens causin...
متن کاملIsolation of Aeromonas species from clinical sources.
In a period of one year, in a general hospital, Aeromonas hydrophila was isolated from 13 patients and Aeromonas shigelloides from one patient. Eight of the patients had superficial infections, two had urinary tract infections, and four had bacteriaemia. The association of Aeromonas bacteriaemia with cirrhosis of the liver and malignant disease, which has been previously reported, was observed ...
متن کاملThe Main Aeromonas Pathogenic Factors
The members of the Aeromonas genus are ubiquitous, water-borne bacteria. They have been isolated from marine waters, rivers, lakes, swamps, sediments, chlorine water, water distribution systems, drinking water and residual waters; different types of food, such as meat, fish, seafood, vegetables, and processed foods. Aeromonas strains are predominantly pathogenic to poikilothermic animals, and t...
متن کاملHigh-resolution crystal structure of the restriction-modification controller protein C.AhdI from Aeromonas hydrophila.
Restriction-modification (R-M) systems serve to protect the host bacterium from invading bacteriophage. The multi-component system includes a methyltransferase, which recognizes and methylates a specific DNA sequence, and an endonuclease which recognises the same sequence and cleaves within or close to this site. The endonuclease will only cleave DNA that is unmethylated at the specific site, t...
متن کاملPathogenic analysis of Aeromonas hydrophila septicemia.
Aeromonas hydrophila has emerged as a potential pathogen in the immunocompromised host. Various aeromonal infections, including septicemia, have also been reported in apparently healthy individuals. For years, researchers have disagreed over the epidemiologic roles of aeromonads in gastroenteritis. Isolation rates of aeromonads by stool culture among patients with gastroenteritis are not consis...
