  2. 1. Characterization and persistence of potential human pathogenic vibrios in aquatic environments

    Author : Betty Collin; Högskolan Kristianstad; Gothenburg University; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Vibrio cholerae; Vibrio parahaemolyticus; Mozambique; Sweden; molluscs; occurrence; persistence; sediment; TCBS; PCR; PhP; antibiotic resistance; microbiology; Vibrio spp.; Mytilus edulis;

    Abstract : Vibrio spp., natural inhabitants of aquatic environments, are one of the most common causes of bacterial gastroenteritis in the world, being spread to humans via the ingestion of seafood, contaminated drinking water or exposure to seawater. The majority of Vibrio spp. are avirulent, but certain strains may sporadically be human pathogenic. READ MORE

  5. 3. VanT, a central regulator of quorum sensing signalling in Vibrio anguillarum

    Author : Antony Croxatto; Debra Milton; Edward G Ruby; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Vibriosis; Vibrio anguillarum; quorum sensing; two-component phosphorelay systems; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Many bacteria produce signal molecules that serve in a cell-to-cell communication system termed quorum sensing. This signalling system allows a bacterial population to co-ordinately regulate functions according to their cell number in a defined environment. READ MORE

  6. 4. Perspectives on urban wastewater as a source of microbial pollution

    Author : Stina-Mina Ehn Börjesson; Ann-Sofi Rehnstam-Holm; Betty Collin; Högskolan Kristianstad; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Wastewater; Mallards; Anas platyrhynchos; E. faecium; E. faecalis; Campylobacter jejuni; Vibrio parahaemolyticus;

    Abstract : Wastewater treatment plants are important links for dissemination of intestinal bacteria into surface waters. In this study, twelve mallards were exposed to treated wastewater for a period of 55 days. Faecal samples were collected and analysed for Enterococcus spp. and C. READ MORE
