In this report, we announce the complete genome sequence of Aeromonas hydrophila strain YL17. Single-molecule real-time (SMRT) DNA sequencing was used to generate the complete genome sequence and the genome-wide DNA methylation profile of this environmental isolate. A total of five unique DNA methyltransferase recognition motifs were reported here.

The in vitro activity of cefoperazone against 380 strains (33 species and unnamed groups) of nonferenters and 20 strains of Aeromonas hydrophila was studied by a microdilution method of determining minimal inhibitory concentrations. For comparison, the activities of ampicillin, ticarcillin, and cefamandole were simultaneously studied. Cefoperazone was the most active drug against Pseudomonas sp...

The present study evaluated the assay to quantify the respiratory burst activity of blood leukocytes of pacu as an indicator of the innate immune system, using the reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) to formazan as a measure of the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In order to assess the accuracy of the assay, fish were challenged by Aeromonas hydrophila and sampled one week aft...

Aeromonas hydrophila is pathogen for several vertebrates. The bacteriological, clinical and epidemiological evidences for the role of A. hydrophila have been described in human infections. The presence of this pathogen in contaminated water is well-established and ingestion of such water may cause infection. There are many reports of acute diarrhoea associated with A. hydrophila transmitted by ...

Palk strait estuarine water was highly polluted by Cu, Fe, Pb, Zn and Hg. The study was carryout the interactions between heavy metals and microorganisms. The study area paying attention on the role of probiotic bacteria such as Bacillus cereus, Aeromonas hydrophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Azotobacter vinelandii, and Lactobacillus sp. to remove the metals from polluted nine aquaculture ponds t...

Septic arthritis of the shoulder is very rarely caused by Aeromonas hydrophila. We present the case of a 45-year-old woman who presented with symptoms of painful shoulder for 2 weeks and dropped head for 1 week prior to admission. A. hydrophila was isolated from a culture of purulent synovial fluid. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed profuse abscess collection between the right infraspinatus m...

We herein describe a case of trauma-related wound infection with a subcutaneous abscess caused by both Enterobacter cancerogenus and Aeromonas hydrophila. An 89-year-old Japanese man was admitted to our hospital because of an injury that he had suffered in a car accident. The right dorsal region of the foot around the wound was reddish and swelling. The pus culture on his right foot grew E. can...
