[Spread of bacteria of the genus Acinetobacter in the hydrobios of the Bay of Peter the Great, the Sea of Japan].

The analysis of the spread of bacteria of the genus Acinetobacter among the invertebrate animals of the Bay of Peter the Great (the Sea of Japan): in bivalved mollusks, sea cucumbers and sea urchins Acinetobacter bacteria were detected more often than in cushion stars and crustaceous animals. The biological properties of 45 isolated bacteria were studied with the use of a wide variety of tests. The study revealed that 9% of Acinetobacter cultures isolated from marine animals had pronounced beta-hemolysis.
