Aeromonas
Environmental MicrobiologyAeromonas Species from Nonchlorinated Distribution Systems and Their Competitive Planktonic Growth in Drinking WaterThe occurrence of the bacterial genus Aeromonas in nonchlorinated drinking water in the Netherlands is regarded as an indication of elevated microbial regrowth in the distribution system. Identification of the prevalent species in 10 distribution systems by genotyping yielded seven different species, with A. rivuli, A. veronii, and A. sobria being the most dominant ones.
Food MicrobiologyLongitudinal Assessment of the Dynamics of Escherichia coli, Total Coliforms, Enterococcus spp., and Aeromonas spp. in Alternative Irrigation Water Sources: a CONSERVE StudyIncreasing demands for fresh fruit and vegetables, a variable climate affecting agricultural water availability, and microbial food safety goals are pressing the need to identify new, safe, alternative sources of irrigation water. Our study generated microbial data collected over a 2-year period from potential sources of irrigation (rivers, ponds, and reclaimed water sites). Pond water was found to comply with Food Safety Modernization...
Environmental MicrobiologyAeromonas Isolates from Fish and Patients in Tainan City, Taiwan: Genotypic and Phenotypic CharacteristicsAeromonas species can cause severe infections in immunocompromised individuals upon exposure to virulent pathogens in the environment, but the characteristics of environmental Aeromonas species remain unclear. Our study showed that several pathogenic Aeromonas species possessing virulence traits and antimicrobial resistance similar to those of Aeromonas isolates causing clinical diseases were present...
Biotechnology | SpotlightRemedial Treatment of Corroded Iron Objects by Environmental Aeromonas IsolatesMicrobiology can greatly help in the quest for a sustainable solution to the problem of iron corrosion, which causes important economic losses in a wide range of fields, including the protection of cultural heritage and building materials. Using bacteria to transform reactive and unstable corrosion products into more-stable compounds represents a promising approach. The overall aim of this study was to develop a method for the...
