Halophilic vibrios (V. parahaemolyticus and V. alginolyticus) were for the first time isolated from the Azov sea in the Eisk district. These vibrios proved to be typical representatives of Vibrio genus and were distinctly differentiated by species according to the following signs: saccharose splitting, growth in peptone water with 10% NaCl solution, and acetylmethylcarbinol production. Swarming capacity on 1.5% agar with 3% NaCl proved to be a more variable sign. All the cultures isolated were typed by means of Japanese O- and K-sera and had the following antigenic formulae: O1:K32; O2:K28; O3:K57; O5:K17; O6:K18. Only in 3 cases it was impossible to determine completely the antigenic formula of vibrios referred by the O-antigen type +o the 7th and 11th groups. Thus, parahemolytic vibrios isolated from the Azov sea were referred to the serological types revealed in Japan in the sea water, hydrobionts and feces of patients with acute gastrointestinal diseases.

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.

Two methods were compared for their ability to accurately identify Vibrio species of interest: whole genome sequencing as the reference method and MALDI-TOF MS (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry) proteome fingerprinting. The accuracy of mass spectrometry-based identification method was evaluated for its ability to accurately identify isolates of Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Identification result of each isolate obtained by mass spectrometry was compared to identification by whole genome sequencing (WGS).

Vibriosis caused by is a major problem in aquatic animals, particularly brown marble groupers (). biotype I has recently been isolated and classified into subgroups SUKU_G1, SUKU_G2, and SUKU_G3 according to the different types of virulence genes. In a previous study, we have shown that biotype I strains were classified into three subgroups according to the different types of virulence genes, which exhibited different phenotypes in terms of growth rate and virulence.

Cholera is linked to penury, making low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) particularly vulnerable to outbreaks. In this systematic review, we analyzed the drivers contributing to these outbreaks, focusing on the epidemiology of cholera in LMICs. This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (ID: CRD42024591613).
