Differentiation of motile and mesophilic Aeromonas strains into species by testing for a CAMP-like factor.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Motile and mesophilic Aeromonas strains can presumptively be differentiated into species in 18 to 24 h by testing the isolates for the production of a CAMP-like factor. Aeromonas hydrophila strains were positive either aerobically or anaerobically, Aeromonas sobria strains were positive only aerobically, and Aeromonas caviae strains were always negative.

Isolation, phenotypic and molecular characterization of motile Aeromonas species, the cause of bacterial hemorrhagic septicemia in affected farmed carp in Iran
Background: Motile Aeromonas species cause heavymortalities in carp farms during spring and summer in Iran. Objectives: The aim of this study was to detect phenotypicand genotypic characterization of motile Aeromonas species isolated fromdiseased carps in some northern and southern provinces of Iran. Methods: A number of 40 samples from 22 fish farms werecollected. The identified motile Aeromon...
متن کاملIncidence and identification of mesophilic Aeromonas spp. from retail foods.
Sixty-eight food samples were examined for the presence of mesophilic Aeromonas species both qualitatively and quantitatively. Aeromonads were isolated from 26% of the vegetable samples, 70% of the meat and poultry samples and 72% of the fish and shrimps. Numbers of motile aeromonads present in the food samples varied from <10(2) cfu g(-1) to >10(5) cfu g(-1). GLC analysis of FAMEs was used to ...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Aeromonas hydrophila Strain Ae25, Isolated from a Septicemic Moribund Koi Carp (Cyprinus carpio) in Sri Lanka
Motile aeromonad septicemia caused by mesophilic strains of Aeromonas hydrophila is a widespread problem in cultured freshwater fish. We announce here the draft genome sequence of the multidrug-resistant A. hydrophila strain Ae25, isolated from a koi carp (Cyprinus carpio) with motile aeromonad septicemia that was collected from an ornamental fish-breeding farm in Sri Lanka.
متن کاملA colonization factor (production of lateral flagella) of mesophilic Aeromonas spp. is inactive in Aeromonas salmonicida strains.
The nine laf (lateral flagellum) genes of mesophilic aeromonads are in the Aeromonas salmonicida genome. The laf genes are functional, except for lafA (flagellin gene), which was inactivated by transposase 8 (IS3 family). A pathogenic characteristic of mesophilic aeromonads (lateral flagella) is abolished in this specialized pathogen with a narrow host range.
متن کاملRole of flm locus in mesophilic Aeromonas species adherence.
The adherence mechanism of Aeromonas caviae Sch3N to HEp-2 cells was initially investigated through four mini-Tn5 mutants that showed a 10-fold decrease in adherence. These mutants lost motility, flagella, and their lipopolysaccharide (LPS) O antigen (O-Ag). Three genes, flmB-neuA-flmD, were found to be interrupted by the transposon insertions; additionally, two other genes, one lying upstream ...
