Toxigenic Vibro cholerae in the aquatic environment of Mathbaria, Bangladesh

Article Abstract:

Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae rarely isolated from the aquatic environment between cholera epidemics, could be detected in what is understood as a dormant stage, that is, viable but nonculturable when standard bacteriological methods are used. The biofilm community is concluded to be an additional reservoir of cholera bacteria in the aquatic environment between seasonal epidemics of cholera in Bangladesh.

Viable but nonculturable vibrio cholerae O1 in the aquatic environment of Argentina

Article Abstract:

An attempt is made to determine the environmental reservoir(S) of vibrio cholerae O1 in Argentina and to evaluate the association of this pathogen with plankton species. The conclusion states that V. cholerae O1 is a resident of Argentinean waters, as has been shown to be the case in other geographic regions of the world.

Occurrence and expression of luminescence in Vibrio cholerae

Article Abstract:

A new method is developed that has allowed a more sensitive assay for expression of luminescence in Vibrio cholerae. Luminescence expression patterns of Vibrio cholerae are examined, isolates are grouped based on expression level and many strains with defective expression of the lux operon are identified.
