To determine the effectivity of bacteriophages in controlling the mass mortality of striped catfish (Pangasianodonhypophthalmus) due to infections caused by Aeromonas spp. in Vietnamese fish farms, bacteriophages against pathogenic Aeromonashydrophila were isolated. A.hydrophila-phage 2 and A.hydrophila-phage 5 were successfully isolated from water samples from the Saigon River of Ho Chi Minh C...

The aim of this research was to study the occurrence of Vibrio spp., Aeromonas hydrophila, Escherichia coli and Campylobacter spp. in crayfish from Azerbaijan Province using culture method and PCR assay. A total of 55 isolates were collected from 97 studied samples. Vibrio spp., A. hydrophila, E. coli and Campylobacter spp. were detected in 26 samples (26.8%), 12 samples (12.3%), 15 samples (15...

A total of 103 isolates of Aeromonas spp. were obtained over a 3-year period from a natural mineral water and from surface streams located within the boundaries of the watershed of the natural mineral water wells and were typed by macrorestriction analysis of genomic DNA with XbaI and by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. All Aeromonas caviae isolates from the natural mineral water belonged to t...

Infections by Aeromonas spp. are a rare cause of systemic infection in normal and immunocompromised hosts. We report the cases of two patients with acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia who developed septic shock by Aeromonas species with unusual soft-tissue complications. One patient who was undergoing consolidation chemotherapy developed septic shock by Aeromonas hydrophila with rhabdomyolysis and...

background: aeromonas species are gram-negative ubiquitous bacteria, facultative anaerobic rods that infect both invertebrates and vertebrates. various fish species develop hemorrhagic disease and furunculosis due to aeromonas spp. aeromonas strains generate certain active compounds such as siderophores, which are the final products of non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (nrps) activity. the prese...

Aeromonas spp. are autochthonous in the aquatic ecosystem and some of them has been increasingly found, in patients with various diseases like enteritis, wound infection and even septicemia in amphibians, reptiles, frog, fish and in patients with impaired immunity. There are different virulence factors like aerolysin, hemolysins, cytotoxins, enterotoxins, proteolytic activity, lipolytic activit...
