First isolation and identification of Vibrio vulnificus (biotype 2) from cultured beluga, Huso huso in Iran
By decreasing of sturgeon stocks in the Caspian Sea, the culture of different sturgeon species especially Huso huso was increased in Iran. Under stress conditions sturgeon can easily be infected by several opportunistic pathogens. In June 2011, mortality happened in 25-28°C water temperature, in one of the most important cultured sturgeon farms in Mazandaran province in the north of Iran. The m...
متن کاملSerotype-specific detection of coxsackievirus A16 in clinical specimens by reverse transcription-nested PCR.
We describe the development of a coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) serotype-specific PCR which correctly differentiated between CVA16 and other enterovirus serotypes of both laboratory isolates and clinical specimens. The assay will be useful for monitoring CVA16 outbreaks and studying the disease association, epidemiology, and evolution of this common enterovirus serotype.
متن کاملVibrio vulnificus: An Environmental and Clinical Burden
Vibrio vulnificus is a Gram negative, rod shaped bacterium that belongs to the family Vibrionaceae. It is a deadly, opportunistic human pathogen which is responsible for the majority of seafood-associated deaths worldwide. V. vulnificus infection can be fatal as it may cause severe wound infections potentially requiring amputation or lead to sepsis in susceptible individuals. Treatment is incre...
متن کاملDirect Identification of Enteroviruses in Cerebrospinal Fluid of Patients with Suspected Meningitis by Nested PCR Amplification
Enteroviruses, the most common human viral pathogens worldwide, have been associated with serous meningitis, encephalitis, syndrome of acute flaccid paralysis, myocarditis and the onset of diabetes type 1. In the future, the rapid identification of the etiological agent would allow to adjust the therapy promptly and thereby improve the course of the disease and prognosis. We developed RT-nested...
متن کاملVibrio vulnificus in Taiwan
Residents in Taiwan are often exposed to marine microorganisms through seafood and occupational exposure. The number of reported cases of infection attributable to this organism has increased since the first case was reported in 1985. The increasing number of cases may be caused by greater disease activity or improved recognition by clinicians or laboratory workers. We analyze a clinical-case s...
