Isolation of oxidase-negative Aeromonas salmonicida
نویسنده
چکیده
The first outbreak of dlsease due to an atyplcal Aeromonas salmonicida among turbot Scophthalmus maximus (L . ) in Denmark is reported. The causal organism was oxidase-negative, non-pigmented, and slow-growing. Additionally it differed from the typical strains in a number of biochemical characters. The mortality among turbot in the farm was high but was responsive to antlmlcrobial therapy.

متن کاملIsolation of Aeromonas salmonicida from Human Blood Sample: A Case Report.
Aeromonas salmonicida belonging to the genus Aeromonas, is a common pathogen that causes furunculosis and septicaemia in variety of fishes. It infects cold blooded vertebrates living at low temperatures mainly salmonid fish hence named salmonicida. Untill recently Aeromanas salmonicida is considered to be a fish pathogen. A. salmonicida is considered to be non-pathogenic for humans as it cannot...
متن کاملSurvival of 'atypical' Aeromonas salmonicida in water and sediment microcosms of different salinities and tem~eratures
The survival of 'atypical', cytochrome oxidase-negative Aeromonas salmonicida in microcosms containing sterilized water and sediment was assessed using the plate count method. The effect of sal~nity, temperature and presence of sediment was investigated on the survival of 2 strains isolated from ulcerated flounder Platjcl~thys flesus from the northern Baltic Sea. The strains survived for only a...
متن کاملQuorum sensing in Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas salmonicida: identification of the LuxRI homologs AhyRI and AsaRI and their cognate N-acylhomoserine lactone signal molecules.
Spent culture supernatants from both Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas salmonicida activate a range of biosensors responsive to N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs). The genes for a quorum sensing signal generator and a response regulator were cloned from each Aeromonas species and termed ahyRI and asaRI, respectively. Protein sequence homology analysis places the gene products within the growing ...
متن کاملEffects of polymyxin B nonapeptide on Aeromonas salmonicida.
In contrast to polymyxin B-susceptible gram-negative bacteria of human origin, the fish pathogen Aeromonas salmonicida was resistant to sensitization by polymyxin B nonapeptide (PMBN) to hydrophobic antibiotics. Similarly, sensitization of A. salmonicida strains by PMBN to the bactericidal action of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) serum complement was less pronounced than the similar effect...
