Cephalothin susceptibility as a potential marker for the Aeromonas sobria group.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fifty-four motile Aeromonas strains, composing the three currently recognizable species, were tested for susceptibility to cephalothin by broth dilution and disk agar diffusion assays. Cephalothin susceptibility was significantly associated with Aeromonas sobria (P less than 0.001) and may be an additional phenotypic marker useful in the identification of this species.

Mortality of therapeutic fish Garra rufa caused by Aeromonas sobria.
OBJECTIVE To investigate a case of mass mortality of Garra rufa (G. rufa) from a fish hatchery farm in Slovakia. METHODS Causative bacterial agent was swabbing out of affected fish skin area and subsequently identified using commercial test system. Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by the disk diffusion method. RESULTS Infected G. rufa was characterized by abnormal swimming behaviour...
متن کاملIn vitro susceptibilities of Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas sobria, and Aeromonas caviae to 22 antimicrobial agents.
MICs of 22 antimicrobial agents for 60 strains of three Aeromonas species were determined by a microdilution method. The newer cephalosporins such as moxalactam, cefotaxime, and cefoperazone, the aminoglycosides, and chloramphenicol, tetracycline, nitrofurantoin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole inhibited most of the strains studied. Within the genus, A. hydrophila was more resistant than eith...
متن کاملPlasmids and resistance to antimicrobial agents in Aeromonas sobria and Aeromonas hydrophila clinical isolates.
The antimicrobial susceptibilities of 75 Aeromonas isolates were determined by agar dilution. Differences in resistance patterns were observed between strains isolated from different geographic locations and between A. sobria and A. hydrophila isolates. Multiple resistance was common; however, only one conjugative plasmid was detected. This 110-megadalton plasmid mediated resistance to eight an...
متن کاملIn-vitro study of inhibitory effect of garlic extract on Aeromonas sobria
BACKGROUND: Garlic (Allium sativum) is known for its anti-bacterial properties, but information on its effects against bacteria species that are important in fish diseases is scarce. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this research was to use garlic as a natural product to improve the aquatic animal health status so as to compensate the demand for environment-friendly products for sustainable aquacultur...
متن کاملIdentification of hydroxy fatty acids in Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas sobria, and Aeromonas caviae.
Gas-liquid chromatographic analysis of fatty acid methyl esters obtained from clinical isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila, A. sobria, and A. caviae revealed the presence of two hydroxy fatty acid species, 3-OH 12:0 and 3-OH 14:0.
