Isolation of a pandemic O3:K6 clone of a Vibrio parahaemolyticus strain from environmental and clinical sources in Thailand

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on the Vibrio paraphaemolyticus serovar K6. The isolation of the strain that belongs to the pandemic O3:K6 clone of V.parahaemolyticus has been carried out.

Analysis of gyrB and toxR gene sequences of Vibrio hollisae and development of gyrB- and toxR-targeted PCR methods for isolation of V. hollisae from the environment and its identification

Article Abstract:

Researchers describe a PCR technique that can be used to identify Vibrio hollisae in seafood. This species produces a hemolysin similar to the one produced by Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The technique identifies two genes that can distinguish this species from other Vibrio species as well as from other bacteria.

Usage, Identification and classification, Polymerase chain reaction

Prevalence of pandemic thermostable direct hemolysin-producing Vibrio parahaemolyticus O3:K6 in seafood and the coastal environment in Japan

Article Abstract:

The incidence and population of thermostable direct hemolysin-producing Vibrio parahaemolyticus O3:K6 in environmental and seafood samples is investigated. Research identifies the hemolysin encoding tdh gene in 33 of 329 samples, which are gathered from sediments of rivers and seafood samples.Data indicate that strains positive for O3:K6 tdh belong to the pandemic O3:K6 clone.
