[Serotyping and genotypic characteristic of Vibrio cholerae non-O1/non-O139 serogroups isolated from water of surface basins and sewages of Rostov-on-Don city in 2003 - 2008].

Aim: Determination of serogroup and PCR-genotyping of Vibrio cholerae non-O1/non-O139 strains isolated from surface basins and sewages of Rostov-on-Don city in 2003 - 2008.

Materials And Methods: Seven hundred strains of V. cholerae non-O1/non-O139 serogroups were studied in reaction of slide-agglutination with array of 80 diagnostic sera for non-O1/non-O139 serogroups.

[Characterization of enteropathogenic Vibrio cholerae non O1/O139 isolated in Uzbekistan].

The results of the serotyping of 244 V. cholerae non O1/O139 cultures isolated from patients in Uzbekistan in 2000 and 2001 are presented. All isolates were studied by the method of molecular probing and in the polymerase chain reaction for the presence of virulence genes and for sensitivity to phages ctx+, ctx- and hemolytic activity.
