Seven Patients of Aeromonas Septicemia in Japan

Isolation and identification of Aeromonas hydrophila from an outbreak of haemorrhagic septicemia in snakes

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...

Aeromonas hydrophila septicemia in a patient with chronic active hepatitis.

Aeromonas hydrophila inhabits freshwater and soil and is mainly pathogenic to cold-blooded animals. It is known to cause red leg disease in frogs, septicemia and stomatitis in snakes and infections in freshwater fish. 1 Human infections due to members of the genus Aeromonas are considered rare and mainly occur in immune compromised individuals or patients who are suffering from chronic disease....

Aeromonas Bacterial Infections Ñ Motile Aeromonad Septicemia

motile members of the genus Aeromonas, are among the most common and troublesome diseases of fish raised in ponds and recirculating systems. The widespread distribution of these bacteria in the aquatic environment and the stress induced by intensive culture practices predisposes fish to infections. Motile aeromonad infections have been recognized for many years and have been referred to by vari...

Aeromonas caviae septicemia in immunocompetent gastrointestinal carriers.

Aeromonas caviae strains have been isolated from blood and stool cultures of three immunocompetent patients, residents of Northern India, who presented with community acquired septicemia without any recent history of diarrhea. Cell culture infectivity test performed on Hep-2 cells have shown substantial degree of invasiveness in the isolated strains. This case unleashes a possibility of asympto...
