Shewanella putrefaciens – a new opportunistic pathogen of freshwater fish
In recent years, Shewanella putrefaciens, commonly known as a halophilic bacteria, has been associated with serious health disorders in freshwater fish. Therefore, it has been described as a new aetiological agent of the disease, named shewanellosis. S. putrefaciens is a heterogeneous group of microorganisms, belonging to the Alteromonadaceae family. Based on different criteria, three biovars a...
متن کاملFirst isolation of Shewanella putrefaciens from freshwater fish – a potential new pathogen of fish
Bacterial isolates from common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were identified by the API 20E system (bioMérieux). Twenty one isolates were identified as Shewanella putrefaciens. These isolates were tested for selected biochemical and cultural characteristics. Pathogenicity of two isolates (Pt38 and K116) for freshwater fish was assayed. Biochemical characteris...
متن کاملPhylogeny of marine and freshwater Shewanella: reclassification of Shewanella putrefaciens NCIMB 400 as Shewanella frigidimarina.
Dissimilatory Fe(III) reduction by Shewanella putrefaciens and related species has generated considerable interest in biochemical characterization of the pathways for anaerobic electron transfer in this organism. Two strains, MR-1 and NCIMB 400, have been extensively used, and several respiratory enzymes have been isolated from each. It has become apparent that significant sequence differences ...
متن کاملShewanella putrefaciens
The major soluble cytochrome isolated from microaerobically grown cells of Shewanella putrefaciens has been shown to be a novel type of flavocytochrome with fumarate reductase activity. This flavocytochrome, located in the periplasmic fraction of cell extracts, has been purified to homogeneity and shown to contain 4 mol of haem c and 1 mol of non-covalently bound FAD per mol of protein. An Mr v...
متن کاملShewanella putrefaciens infective endocarditis.
Shewanella putrefaciens rarely causes infection in humans. In the last few decades a growing number of cases have been described. The following report outlines the case of a 40-year-old immunocompetent white man with S. putrefaciens infective endocarditis. This is the first known case of infective endocarditis due to an apparently monomicrobial S. putrefaciens infection, and the second known ca...
