Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an important foodborne pathogen, of which the 03:K6 serotype caused many outbreaks in different countries since 1996. Based on the 10 years data (1992-2001) from China, gastroenteritis caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus accounted for 31.1% of foodborne disease outbreaks that were resulted from microorganisms. Most environmental strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus are non-pathogenic strains. However, clinical strains can producethermostable direct hemolysin (TDH), TDH-related hemolysin, and other virulence factors. Here we reviewed three commonly used molecular markers for Vibrio parahaemolyticus, including species-specific genes, the virulence genes and pandemic group-specific genes, so that to provide references for the rapid detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and the identification of its pathogenic factor.

Introduction: () is a common foodborne pathogen in coastal areas of China. Most epidemiological studies on have focused on foodborne disease outbreaks, with fewer studies based on long-term, continuous, and systematic sentinel surveillance.

Methods: Data were collected from the national foodborne disease active surveillance program in 31 provincial-level administrative divisions (PLADs) in China from 2013 to 2022.

is a key foodborne pathogen in seafood that poses health risks to consumers. The application of phages and organic acids is considered an alternative strategy for controlling bacterial contamination in foods. In the present study, the genome features of five previously isolated virulent phages (VPpYZU64, VPpYZU68, VPpYZU81, VPpYZU92, and VPpYZU110) were characterized, and their bacteriostatic effects in combination with citric acid were analyzed.

Farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase (FPPS) is a key enzyme in the terpenoid biosynthesis pathway, responsible for converting isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP) into farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP). In crustaceans, FPPS plays an important role in various physiological processes, particularly in synthesizing the crustacean-specific hormone methyl farnesoate (MF). This study analyzed the evolutionary differences in the physicochemical properties, subcellular localization, gene structure, and motif composition of FPPS in (named NdFPPS) compared to other species.

This study investigates an L-type lectin, NdLTL1, derived from Neocaridina denticulata sinensis, emphasizing its role in immune defense through carbohydrate binding and bacterial agglutination. Bioinformatics analysis identified 179 lectin sequences, leading to subsequent investigations into the structure and function of NdLTL1. The open reading frame (ORF) of NdLTL1 spans 966 bp and encodes a protein consisting of 321 amino acids (36.

Background: Foodborne pathogens, particularly Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) found in seafood, pose significant health risks, including abdominal pain, nausea, and even death. Rapid, accurate, and sensitive detection of these pathogens is crucial for food safety and public health. However, existing detection methods often require complex sample pretreatment, which limits their practical application.
