Serological properties of 468 strains of the cholera group of vibrios, in which cholera and NAG vibrios are included, were studied. The results are summarized as follows: 1. By cross agglutination tests, 39 O groups of which O group 1 was assigned to cholera vibrio were established within the group. 2. It was demonstrated that H antigen of the cultures of all O groups was identical with that of...

vibrio cholerae is a human pathogen that causes mild to severe diarrheal illnesses and has major public health significance. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of antimicrobial activity of the gold nanoparticles on vibrio cholera. gold and silver nanoparticles are chemically synthesized. standard strain of vibrio cholerawas cultured in a nutrient broth. minimum inhibitory conc...

Genomic data generated from clinical Vibrio cholerae O1 isolates collected over a five year period in an area of Kolkata, India with seasonal cholera outbreaks allowed a detailed genetic analysis of serotype switching that occurred from Ogawa to Inaba and back to Ogawa. The change from Ogawa to Inaba resulted from mutational disruption of the methyltransferase encoded by the wbeT gene. Re-emerg...

conclusions obtained data demonstrated that the designed assay is an accurate, easy, rapid, and cost-effective tool for detecting v. cholerae that can serve as an alternate to current bacteriological tests. background several epidemic and endemic cases have been reported involving vibrio cholerae (v. cholerae) as a causative organism in serious diarrheal diseases with high mortality. hence, qui...

INTRODUCTION Cholera, a disease caused by Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 remains an important public health problem globally. In the last decade, Kenya has experienced a steady increase of cholera cases. In 2009 alone, 11,769 cases were reported to the Ministry of Public Health and Sanitation. This study sought to describe the phenotypic characteristics of the isolated V. cholerae isolates. METH...

Problem statement: Food borne illness occurs all over the world. Vibrio cholerae is the etiological agent of cholera which is spread by contaminated food, water or direct fecal contact with food handlers. There are also examples of sporadic outbreaks of illness attributed to raw products eaten unprocessed. Consequently, there was a widespread concern that food in international trade carries pat...

Cholera may be clinically indistinguishable from other common causes of severe diarrhea in neonates. The most common worldwide form is Vibrio cholera El Tor. A delay in diagnosis can lead to high fatality rates due to renal failure and seizures. Hanging drop method for diagnosis has 100% specificity. In India youngest age reported is a 3 day old baby. We report a case of Vibrio Cholera gastroen...
