Influence of temperature, salinity, and pH on logistic growth rate of Vibrio vulnificus biotypes as determined by culture-based and real-time PCR methods
Vibrio vulnificus is an opportunistic human pathogen responsible for septicemia and severe wound infections. V. vulnificus strains have been categorized into three biotypes determined by biochemical testing methods (Biosca et al.1997; Bisharat et al. 2005). Biotype 1 strains are most frequently responsible for human infections, while biotype 2 strains are associated with disease in eels (Amaro ...
متن کاملDomain organization and evolution of multifunctional autoprocessing repeats-in-toxin (MARTX) toxin in Vibrio vulnificus.
The objective of this study was to analyze multifunctional autoprocessing repeats-in-toxin (MARTX) toxin domain organization within the aquatic species Vibrio vulnificus as well as to study the evolution of the rtxA1 gene. The species is subdivided into three biotypes that differ in host range and geographical distribution. We have found three different types (I, II, and III) of V. vulnificus M...
متن کاملEffects of temperature and salinity on Vibrio vulnificus population dynamics as assessed by quantitative PCR.
The abundance of Vibrio vulnificus in coastal environments has been linked to water temperature, while its relationship to salinity is less clear. We have developed a culture-independent, most-probable-number quantitative PCR approach to examine V. vulnificus population dynamics in Barnegat Bay, N.J. Based on the combined analysis of our results from Barnegat Bay and from the literature, the pr...
متن کاملComparison of outer membrane protein profiles of Vibrio vulnificus biotypes 1 and 2.
The outer membrane proteins of 17 Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2 strains from Japanese and European eels, and 12 biotype 1 strains from clinical and environmental sources have been compared. The overall profile in both biotypes was similar, and a major protein band of molecular mass 36 kDa was detected in the majority of the strains. Differences in the minor bands allowed differentiation of strain...
متن کاملFirst 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...
