According to Bergey’s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology [48], the genus Aeromonas includes the following species: Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas bestiarum, Aeromonas salmonicida, Aeromonas caviae, Aeromonas media, Aeromonas eucrenophila, Aeromonas sobria, Aeromonas veronii (biovars sobria and veronii), Aeromonas jandaei, Aeromonas schubertii, Aeromonas trota, Aeromonas allosaccharophila, Aerom...

Cholera is a significant public health threat across the globe, especially in coastal regions with poor water supply. This study was carried out to determine antibiogram, genomic, and phylogeny of stool seafood isolates from some cholera-prone communities Rivers State, Nigeria. A total 400 samples 42 different were aseptically collected examined using standard microbiology molecular techniques....

An easier assessment model would be helpful for high-throughput screening of Aeromonas virulence. The previous study indicated the potential of Tetrahymena as a permissive model to examine virulence of Aeromonas hydrophila. Here our aim was to assess virulence of Aeromonas spp. using two model hosts, a zebrafish assay and Tetrahymena-Aeromonas co-culture, and to examine whether data from the Te...

Aeromonas spp is recognized as pathogenic to humans after consumption of contaminated water and food. In the present investigation, 2,323 rectal swab samples from newborns hospitalized in Rio de Janeiro were evaluated with a view to isolating Aeromonas. The samples were collected and sent to the national reference laboratory for cholera and other bacterial intestinal infections, at the Oswaldo ...

aeromonas hydrophila is a causative agent of a number of human infections. aeromonads have been isolated from patients with diarrhea. in spite of a number of virulence factors produced by aeromonas species, their association with diarrheal diseases has not been clearly linked. in current study, 1546 fecal samples of a randomly selected population were screened for presence of a. hydrophila. out...

A total of 49 Aeromonas isolates obtained from food animals and immunocompromised human cancer patients from Nagpur, were investigated for antibiotic sensitivity pattern by disc diffusion method. Aeromonas spp. exhibited different level of antibiotic sensitivity based on the zone of inhibition observed around the antibiotic disc. Most of the isolates exhibited highest sensitivity towards ceftaz...

Chironomids (Diptera: Chironomidae), also known as non-biting midges, are one of the most abundant groups of insects in aquatic habitats. They undergo a complete metamorphosis of four life stages of which three are aquatic (egg, larva, and pupa), and the adult emerges into the air. Chironomids serve as a natural reservoir of Aeromonas and Vibrio cholerae species. Here, we review existing knowle...

AIM This study was conducted to evaluate the presence of Aeromonas spp. in raw and ready-to-eat (RTE) fish commonly consumed in Assiut city, Egypt, and to determine virulence factors due to they play a key role in their pathogenicity. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 125 samples of raw and RTE fish samples were taken from different fish markets and fish restaurants in Assiut Governorate and s...
