Abstract

Vibrio choleae non-O1 has been reported to cause food borne gastroenteritis. This strain produces therm()stable direct hemolysin (NAG-rTDH) similar with that of Vibrio parahaemolyticus. As a result of rabbit ligated intestinal loop test, TDH caused fluid accumulation and is considered to be the major virulent factor. Hemolysis by TDH has been reported to cause colloid osmotic lysis of erythrocytes. (omitted)
