comparative studies and laboratory diagnosis of vibrio vulnificus, an invasive vibrio sp.vibrio vulnificus was isolated from a bacteremic patient. this strain, together with other isolates of v. vulnificus, was compared with v. alginolyticus, v. fluvialis, and v. parahaemolyticus with regard to growth characteristics on enteric agar media (enabling isolation and identification) and production of exoenzymes which could correlate with invasive potential. v. vulnificus grew well on macconkey. endo, xylose-lysine deoxycholate, and hektoen enteric agar plates. because v. vulnificus colon ...19846699140
wound infections caused by vibrio vulnificus, a marine vibrio, in inland areas of the united states.vibrio vulnificus is a halophilic marine vibrio which may produce infection in wounds exposed to seawater or raw shellfish. the centers for disease control has received two isolates from wounds exposed to inland waters, a new mexico creek and an oklahoma reservoir. halophilic organisms were recovered from both the creek and the reservoir, and the water in both sites was found to be brackish. both clinical isolates of v. vulnificus grew in salt concentrations as low as those found in the creek an ...19846699148
cytolytic activity and virulence of vibrio damsela.a correlation was observed between the ability of 19 isolates of vibrio damsela, a halophilic bacterium recently recognized as a human pathogen, to cause disease in mice and to produce large amounts of a cytolytic toxin in vitro. the yield of toxin in the culture supernatant fluids was optimal during the mid- and late-logarithmic phases of growth in medium containing 0.5% na+ ion, was stable during the stationary growth phase, and was significantly reduced in culture medium containing greater th ...19846715036
clinical features and an epidemiological study of vibrio vulnificus infections.vibrio vulnificus, a recently described halophilic vibrio species, has been isolated from the blood, wounds, and other skin lesions of patients with primary sepsis or wound infections. because no study of risk factors for infections with v vulnificus has been reported, a case-control study was performed with the 30 patients from whom v vulnificus isolates were recently submitted to the centers for disease control (atlanta, georgia). patients with primary sepsis were more likely than controls to ...19846725989
role of heme compounds and haptoglobin in vibrio vulnificus pathogenicity.an induced peritonitis model was employed in mice to determine whether heme-containing molecules enhance the lethality of infections by vibrio vulnificus. the lethality of intraperitoneal (ip) inocula of the bacteria was increased by concurrent injections (ip) of hemoglobin, methemoglobin, or hematin, but not by myoglobin. similar results were obtained in mice with phenylhydrazine-induced hemoglobinemia, in which after ip injections of v. vulnificus, a direct correlation between lethality and le ...19846746093
extracellular phospholipase a2 and lysophospholipase produced by vibrio vulnificus.phospholipase a2 and lysophospholipase activities were detected in the culture supernatant fluids of a virulent strain of vibrio vulnificus. the phospholipase a2 was inactivated by heating at 56 degrees c for 30 min, had an apparent molecular weight of greater than or equal to 80,000 (estimated by gel filtration with sephadex g-75), and a pi of ca. 5.0. phospholipid hydrolysis was unaffected by ca2+ or ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-n,n-tetraacetic acid and was optimal at ph 5.0 to 5 ...19846746100
vibrio vulnificus septicaemia.a patient, who had been receiving treatment for refractory anaemia with excess of myeloblasts for three years, developed septic shock due to vibrio vulnificus septicaemia. the infection was believed to have been introduced with the ingestion of raw oysters. this organism is comparatively rare, but it can cause serious infection, and is known to be capable of very rapid tissue invasion.19846749004
statistical evaluation of a quality control method for isolation of pathogenic vibrio species on selected thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose agars.the recovery of vibrio cholerae, vibrio fluvialis, vibrio parahaemolyticus, and vibrio vulnificus, employing eight strains of each species, was studied by using four brands of thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose (tcbs) agar prepared according to manufacturers' instructions and following a standardized procedure. a standardized broth inoculum of each strain was placed on duplicate plates of each brand of tcbs agar and also on tryptic soy agar (difco laboratories) containing 1% (wt/vol) nacl, t ...19826761362
vibrio vulnificus (lactose-positive vibrio) and vibrio parahaemolyticus differ in their susceptibilities to human serum.eleven vibrio vulnificus (lactose-positive vibrio) strains were less susceptible to the bactericidal activity of normal human serum or serum treated with magnesium-ethyleneglycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether)-n,n'-tetraacetic acid than were six vibrio parahaemolyticus strains.19816788703
