in this study , samples of farm shrimp species paeneus indicus obtained from different stages of hatchery and rearing period and subsequent marketing , water and sediments of rearing farms and marine shrimp species paeneus semisulcatus , were analysed for vibrio spp . according to the methods described by american public health association . the identified vibrio species , were vibrio alginolyt...

We announce the draft genome sequences of Vibrio alginolyticus strains V1 and V2, isolated from juvenile Sparus aurata and Dentex dentex, respectively, during outbreaks of vibriosis. The genome sequences are 5,257,950 bp with a G+C content of 44.5% for V. alginolyticus V1 and 5,068,299 bp with a G+C content of 44.8% for strain V2. These genomes provide further insights into the putative virulen...

Na+ was found to be essential for the accumulation of sucrose by Vibrio alginolyticus. Sucrose uptake was completely inhibited by the addition of proton conductor at neutral pH, but not at alkaline pH, where the primary electrogenic Na+ pump generates the Na+ electrochemical gradient. We therefore conclude that sucrose transport is driven by the electrochemical potential of Na+ in this organism.

In this study, we investigated the hemocytes' immune response to white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) or Vibrio alginolyticus infection at the protein level. The differential proteomes from crab hemocytes infected with WSSV or V. alginolyticus were analyzed using the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation approach immediately after infection. Using this approach, we identified 1,799 p...

Two episodes of mortality of cultured carpet shell clams (Ruditapes decussatus) associated with bacterial infections were recorded during 2001 and 2002 in a commercial hatchery located in Spain. Vibrio alginolyticus was isolated as the primary organism from moribund clam larvae that were obtained during the two separate events. Vibrio splendidus biovar II, in addition to V. alginolyticus, was i...

275 chorea occurs when the function of the corpus striatum is disrupted, the specific abnormality in Sydenham's chorea is unknown. The response to valproic acid suggests that the defect affects the GABA neurotransmitter system. Possibly the difference in effectiveness of valproic acid between Sydenham's chorea and Huntington's chorea reflects the degree of severity of the pathologic process or,...

We analysed 34 Vibrio alginolyticus strains isolated from gilthead sea bream Sparus aurata L. and sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax L. cultured in fish farms on the Tunisian Mediterranean coast for the presence of several virulence properties such as extracellular products (ECP) production, growth in iron-limiting conditions and survival in fish serum. The results obtained with different substrates...

Adhesion is a critical step in the initial stage of Vibrio alginolyticus infection; therefore, it is important to understand the underlying mechanisms governing the adhesion of V. alginolyticus and determine if environmental factors have any effect. A greater understanding of this process may assist in developing preventive measures for reducing infection. In our previous research, we presented...

This study characterized the current epidemiology of vibrio infections in Florida and examined cases reported from 1998 to 2007. Logistic regression was used to determine risk of death. There were 834 vibrio infections in 825 individuals (average annual incidence rate 4·8/1,000,000). Common Vibrio species reported were Vibrio vulnificus (33%), V. parahaemolyticus (29%), and V. alginolyticus (16...
