Abstract excerpt
The ability of Aeromonas hydrophila serogroup O:34 strains grown under different conditions (capsulated and non-capsulated) to adhere to and invade two fish cell lines was compared. The level of adherence was slightly higher when the strains were grown under conditions promoting capsule formation...
