Vibrio cholerae non-O1 in Colombia

Water Research, 1997
Abstract Six hundred and ninety colonies from 11 water samples were tested for V. cholerae and other vibrio species. Four isolates of V. cholerae non-O1 were isolated besides a few other vibrios. Isolates of V. cholerae were found to be toxin-negative and resistance to most antibiotics.

The Vibrio cholerae O1 chromosomal integron.

Microbiology (Reading, England), 2001
Until the discovery of the Vibrio cholerae repeat (VCR), the gene capture and expression systems termed integrons had been typically associated with antibiotic-resistance gene cassettes with usually less than five genes in an array. A method is described for the cloning of the ends of large cassette arrays.

O1 and non-O1 Vibrio cholerae bacteremia produced by hemolytic strains

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2006
Vibrio cholerae are Gram-negative bacteria capable of producing serious infections. They are differentiated into O1 and non-O1 serogroups, depending on their ability to agglutinate with specific antiserum. In contrast to non-O1 V. cholerae, which are more prone to invading the bloodstream, V. cholerae O1 is rarely the cause of bacteremia. We describe 2

Survival of Vibrio cholerae O1 on plastic materials

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 1996
Survival of environmental and clinical strains of Vibrio cholerae O1 was studied on glass and on two varieties of plastic materials. V. cholerae survived at least 2 days on glass, but was not recovered from polystyrene spoons after 15-20 min. Escherichia coli survived for at least 2 days on both glass slides and plastic spoons.

Enterotoxigenicity of Clinical Isolates of Non-O1 Vibrio Cholerae

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1985
Whole cultures, but not culture supernatant fluids, of 21 isolates of non-O1 V. cholerae from patients with diarrhea were shown to induce positive fluid accumulation in infant mice. CHO cell assays demonstrated the elaboration of heat-labile cytotonic, cytotoxic or both factors from most isolates when grown under optimal culture conditions.

Biotype-specific probe for Vibrio cholerae serogroup O1

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1990
The O1 serogroup of Vibrio cholerae can be divided into two biotypes, El Tor and Classical. Current tests to distinguish between these biotypes are often difficult to interpret. On the basis of the difference in sequence of the hlyA gene in these biotypes, we have developed a simple probe that can easily and reliably differentiate between the two ...

A non-O1 Vibrio Cholerae Isolated from a Goose

Avian Diseases, 1981
In recent years, a diarrheal (and at times, systemic) disease in humans due to non-01 Vibrio cholerae infection has been reported (3,4). In the United States, these syndromes have been associated with the consumption of shellfish or exposure to salt water (3).

A novel kit for rapid detection of Vibrio cholerae O1

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1994
We report on the development and testing of a novel, rapid, colorimetric immunodiagnostic kit, Cholera SMART, for direct detection of the presence of Vibrio cholerae O1 in clinical specimens. Unlike conventional culture methods requiring several days to complete, the Cholera SMART kit can be used directly in the field by untrained or minimally skilled ...

Purification and partial characterization of fimbriae of Vibrio cholerae O1

Vaccine, 1987
Fimbriae of Vibrio cholerae O1 were purified from a strain of the classical biotype, Inaba serotype (Bgd 17), and a strain of the El Tor biotype, Ogawa serotype (K23), grown on TCG agar medium by the following procedure; homogenization of the cell suspension to detach fimbriae, ultracentrifugation to remove remaining cells and their debris ...

Novel Transmissible Factors in a Non-O1 Vibrio cholerae and a Vibrio sp.

Microbiology, 1986
Transmissible factors encoding production of lacunae (L factors) were demonstrated in a non-O1 Vibrio cholerae and a Vibrio sp. of recent environmental origin. Lacunae were produced in lawns of non-O1 V. cholerae indicator strains under the same assay conditions as those where lacunae were produced by the well characterized P fertility plasmid of V ...
