Abstract:
SUMMARYMultilocus enzyme electrophoresis was used to examine genetic relationships among and between toxigenic and non-toxigenic isolates ofVibrio choleraeO1 obtained from patients and the environment in the US Gulf Coast and surrounding areas. A total of 23 toxigenic and 23 non-toxigenic strains were examined. All the toxigenic and 7 of the non-toxigenic strains had the same alleles at 16 enzyme loci, whereas the balance of the nontoxigenic strains had 9 distinct combinations of alleles. This study suggests that all of the toxigenic strains belong to a single clone, and that while some of the

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Toxigenic serogroups O1 and O139 of Vibrio cholerae may cause cholera epidemics or pandemics. Nontoxigenic strains within these serogroups also exist in the environment, and also some may cause sporadic cases of disease. Herein, we investigate the genomic diversity among toxigenic and nontoxigenic O1 and O139 strains by comparative genomic microarray hybridization with the genome of El Tor strain N16961 as a base. Conservation of the toxigenic O1 El Tor and O139 strains is found as previously reported, whereas accumulation of genome changes was documented in toxigenic El Tor strains i

Episodes of cholera stemming from indigenous Vibrio cholerae strains in Australia are mainly associated with environmental sources. In the present study, 10 V. cholerae O1 strains of Australian origin were characterized. All of the strains were serogroup O1 and their conventional phenotypic traits categorized them as belonging to the El Tor biotype. Genetic screening of 12 genomic regions that are associated with virulence in V. cholerae showed variable results. Analysis of the ctxAB gene showed that the Australian environmental reservoir contains both toxigenic and non-toxigenic V. cholerae s

Aspergillus flavus is a phytopathogenic fungus able to produce aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), a carcinogenic mycotoxin that can contaminate several crops and food commodities.

Microbial-derived volatile organic compounds (mVOCs) emitted by toxigenic and non-toxigenic strains of A. flavus were analyzed by solid phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) in a time-lapse experiment after inoculation.

Abstract:
SUMMARYThe expression of toxigenicity byVibrio cholerae, before and after exposure to various conditions of salinity, pH and cation composition and concentration, has been measured. Exposure to these conditions did not select for hyper- or hypo-toxigenic strains. This suggests that toxigenicV. choleraeO 1 are unlikely to lose their toxigenicity when exposed to environmental stress and thatV. choleraetoxin production is not a response to the stresses included in this study. These results are consistent with an aquatic reservoir for toxigenicV. choleraeO 1.

ABSTRACT Vibrio cholerae is a natural inhabitant of the aquatic environment. However, its toxigenic strains can cause potentially life-threatening diarrhea. A quadruplex real-time PCR assay targeting four genes, the cholera toxin gene (ctxA), the hemolysin gene (hlyA), O1-specific rfb, and O139-specific rfb, was developed for detection and differentiation of O1, O139, and non-O1, non-O139 strains and for prediction of their toxigenic potential. The specificity of the assay was 100% when tested against 70 strains of V. cholerae and 31 strains of non-V. cholerae organisms. The analytical sensiti

Although cyanobacteria are essential microorganisms on earth, some cyanobacteria produce toxins known as cyanotoxins, threatening humans and animals’ health. Hence, it is imperative to rapidly and accurately identify those toxic cyanobacteria. Unfortunately, traditional microscopic methods have limitations for accurate identification due to the lack of discernable morphological difference between toxic and non-toxic strains within the same cyanobacterial species or genus.
