Abstract
We investigated the distribution and drug susceptibility test of V. vulnificus isolated from environmental sources in Incheon. In this survey, total 4,302 samples were obtained from different sites of the Incheon coastal area during the periods from march 2004 to November 2006. Among the 4,302 samples, 310 strains were isolated. The isolation rates of Vibrio vulnificus from fish, shellfish, estuarine water and sediment were 6.7%, 4.7%, 12.4% and 23.2%, respectively. The highest isolation rate was 14.6% in September and in spite of low temperature the isolation rate was 5.1% in November. The highest rate of antibiotic resistance was observed against streptomycin(15.3%), cefazolin(8.5%), cephalothin(8.3%), amikacin(8.3%), cefoxitin(6.7%) and nalidixic acid(6.7%). Seventeen percent of isolates were observed to be resistant to two or more of the antibiotics tested.
