The Viability of Vibrio Choleræ in Natural Waters

Vibrio Choleræ and Other Vibrios. (Observations on 'Water Vibrios', with Special Reference to Their Variation during Storage in Culture Medium and Possible Relationship to Vibrio Choleræ)

Tomb and Maitra (1926) as a result of their investigations concluded that the agglutinable vibrio found in the dejecta of cholera patients, and the non-agglutinable vibrio found in carriers and in natural waters contaminated with human faeces are one and the same organism. They arrived at this conclusion after inseminating tanks* with fresh cholera stools containing large numbers of agglutinabl...

Occurrence of Pathogenic Vibrios in Coastal Areas of Golestan Province in Iran

  This study was carried out to investigate the occurrence of potentially pathogenic species of vibrio in sea water and estuarine environments of the Caspian Sea in the Golestan province of Iran. A total of 127 water samples from coastal waters as well as from river and estuaries were collected and analyzed by culture, during April and September 2001. Following prompt centrifugation, the resusp...

Vibrio Choleræ from Material Obtained by Liver Puncture during Life

The Isolation of Vibrio choleræ from Non-Cholera Individuals

Although there are many records 01 the finding of vibrios in the stools of healthy individuals, there is no means of establishing whether the strains isolated were those conforming to the vibrio now generally accepted as Vibrio cholerce. Recent work on the antigenic structure of vibrios has shown that V. cholerce possesses a specific ' 0 ' antigen and that the thermo-labile ' H ' antigen is sha...

The effect of ZnO nanoparticles on the Vibrio species isolated from coastal water of the Persian Gulf port

Introduction: Using zinc oxide nanoparticles, as a catalyst removal of fecal pollution indicator bacteria in water, has been studied as a model of bacterial contamination. This study aims to determine the toxicity and selection of appropriate indicators to evaluate the toxicity of zinc oxide nanoparticles on the isolated bacteria Vibrio species of Bushehr coastal waters. Methods: In this experi...
