Prevalence, virulence-gene profiles, antimicrobial resistance, and genetic diversity of human pathogenic Aeromonas spp. from shellfish and aquatic environments.

Abstract excerpt

Aeromonas are found in various habitats, particularly in aquatic environments. This study examined the presence of the most common human pathogenic Aeromonas species (Aeromonas caviae, A. hydrophila, and A. veronii) in surface water, sea water, and shellfish. The detection rates in fishing harbour seawater, shellfish farming seawater, and a river basin were 33.3%, 26.4%, and 29.4%, respectively, and high...
