Modelling of Indicator Escherichia coli Contamination in Sentinel Oysters and Estuarine Water. [PDF]
This study was performed to improve the ability to predict the concentrations of Escherichia coli in oyster meat and estuarine waters by using environmental parameters, and microbiological and heavy metal contamination from shellfish growing area in ...

Phylogenetic analysis reveals an ancient gene duplication as the origin of the MdtABC efflux pump. [PDF]
The efflux pumps from the Resistance-Nodulation-Division family, RND, are main contributors to intrinsic antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Among this family, the MdtABC pump is unusual by having two inner membrane components.

Prevalence study of Vibrio species and frequency of the virulence genes of Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolated from fresh and salted shrimps in Genaveh seaport [PDF]
Vibrio species are important seafood-borne pathogens that are responsible for 50-70% of gasteroenteritis. The present study was carried out in order to determine the prevalence of Vibrio species and the distribution of tdh, tlh and trh virulence genes in

Laboratory Infection by Vibrio Parahaemolyticus [PDF]
Summary Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection is generally believed to follow ingestion of heavily contaminated food, the commonest source being raw sea-fish. In the present communication we report a laboratory-acquired infection with this organism in which clinical disease probably followed the ingestion of only a small number of organisms.

Effect of bile on Vibrio parahaemolyticus [PDF]
Many enteric pathogens are thought to enter a viable but nonculturable state when deprived of nutrients. Virulent strains of the enteric pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus are rarely isolated from their low-nutrient aquatic environments, possibly due to their nonculturability.

Panophthalmitis caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus [PDF]
We report a case of Vibrio parahaemolyticus panophthalmitis which resulted from contamination of a wound with water from a pond in inland Georgia. The pond was on the property of an oil refinery which receives crude oil from southern Mississippi. Cultures of the pond water 5 years later did not yield V.
