چکیده
In the course of the investigation into the bacteriology and epidemiology of cholera, which we are at present conducting in the Asansol Mining vSettlement, we found that during the hot dry months of the year (February to June)?which also constitute the epidemic season in that area? vibrios were extremely numerous in the smaller village ground tanks much used by the inhabitants for bathing; the number of vibrios found in such tanks being approximately proportionate to the number of people using the tanks and inversely proportionate to the volume of water they contained. In very large " clean " tanks ' vibrios

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...

Introduction: Vibrio cholera is a gram-negative bacterium that causes cholera which is an acute diarrheal illness. Cholera outbreak mostly happens in hot seasons when the bacteria reproduce rapidly in water contaminated with feces. Severe diarrhea and mortality have been the prevalent symptoms of cholera which affect the hygienic status and economic features of humans during centuries. There is...
متن کاملIsolation and screening of antibacterial and enzyme producing marine actinobacteria to approach probiotics against some pathogenic vibrios in shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei
The application of new probiotics is a good strategy in the biological control of infectious diseases in aquaculture. Approximately 100 marine actinobacteria isolates were obtained from 10 sediment samples of shrimp farms. Heat treatment of sediment samples resulted in a selective reduction of the non actinobacterial heterotrophic microflora. Starch nitrate agar medium exhibited more efficacy t...
