Newly Isolated Vibrio cholerae Non-O1, Non-O139 Phages
Although cytologic examination of CSF from patients with encephalitis is likely nonspecific, it may provide supportive information of the suspected disease process, and is useful for excluding other conditions, such as neoplasia. Of the 22 patients that were hospitalized at our institution last year with WNV meningoencephalitis, documented by serologic tests and/or reverse transcription-polymer...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of Vibrio cholerae O1, O139, non-O1, and non-O139 strains: clonal relationships between clinical and environmental isolates.
A total of 26 strains of Vibrio cholerae, including members of the O1, O139, and non-O1, non-O139 serogroups from both clinical and environmental sources, were examined for the presence of genes encoding cholera toxin (ctxA), zonula occludens toxin (zot), accessory cholera enterotoxin (ace), hemolysin (hlyA), NAG-specific heat-stable toxin (st), toxin-coregulated pilus (tcpA), and outer membran...
متن کاملIsolation and Identification of Vibrio cholerae Serogroups O1 and O139
Isolation and identification of V. cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 can be greatly enhanced when optimal laboratory media and techniques are employed. The methods presented here are intended to be economical and to offer laboratorians some flexibility in choice of protocol and media. Laboratories that do not have sufficient resources to adopt the methods described in this chapter should consider...
متن کاملCholera, Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139, and Other Pathogenic Vibrios
Cholera is a potentially epidemic and life-threatening secretory diarrhea characterized by numerous, voluminous watery stools, often accompanied by vomiting, and resulting in hypovolemic shock and acidosis. It is caused by certain members of the species Vibrio cholerae which can also cause mild or inapparent infections. Other members of the species may occasionally cause isolated outbreaks of m...
متن کاملSurvey of in vitro susceptibilities of Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 to antimicrobial agents.
Vibrio cholerae O139 (173 strains) and O1 (221 strains) were tested for their in vitro susceptibilities to 39 antimicrobial agents. Both O139 and O1 strains were highly susceptible to azithromycin, cephems, minocycline, penems, and newer fluoroquinolones. O139 strains (94.8%), O1 Indian El Tor strains (97%), and Bangladeshi El Tor strains (50%) were highly resistant to streptomycin, sulfamethox...
