The antibiotics-resistance profiles of 28 strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolated from seawater were investigated. All of the strains studied were resistant to ampicillin (100%), but susceptible to 12 other antibiotics. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of V. parahaemolyticus to ampicillin was as high as $1,024-2,048\;{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$. The phenotype of strain 8 changed from ampicillin-resistant to susceptible with an in-frame deletion mutant of VPA0477, a putative ${\beta}$-lactamase gene, and the MIC for ampicillin of the mutant strain was $1{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the VPA0477 gene acts as a ${\beta}$-lactamase in ampicillin-resistant V. parahaemolyticus strains.

From 2014 to 2017, mortalities of seawater-cultured rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, were observed in the Goheung and Jeju areas of Korea, with Vibrio anguillarum (seven strains: RT1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) identified as the etiological agent. The phenotypic (based on API 20NE, API ZYM, and E-test kits), serotypic (slide agglutination tests with O1, O2, O3, O4, and O7 antisera), and genotypic (16S rRNA and ompU sequencing) characteristics of the seven RT strains were analyzed and compared to those of seven additional V. anguillarum stains (SF, isolated from sweet fish; FM, isolated from flathead mullet; ATCC43305; ATCC43311; ATCC43307; ATCC43308; and KCTC2711). The phenotypes of the RT strains showed variance, while the slide agglutination tests of the RT1-7, SF, and FM strains all showed positive reactions with serotype O1 antiserum. The 16S rRNA and ompU sequences of the RT1-7, SF, and FM strains were affiliated with V. anguillarum ATCC43305 (Serotype O1), but the ompU sequence of the SF strain differed from those of the RT1-7, FM, and ATCC43311 strains, including one amino acid substitution. We thus confirmed that serotype O1 V. anguillarum, with multiple phenotypes, continues to infect seawater-cultured rainbow trout in Korea.

Vibrio cholerae non-O1 49균주와 V. Vibrio cholerae non-O1, V. mimicus, V. vulnificus와 V. parahaemolyticus의 균체 지방산(fatty acid methyl ester; FAME)을 gas liquid chromatogrphy로 분석하였다. 이들 분석자료를 통계학적으로 처리하여 Vibrio 종과 V. cholerae의 혈청형별 유연성을 비교 검토하였다. 검출된 지방산은 모두 41종이었고 분포량이 많은 것은 16:0, 16:1 cis 9, 18:1 trans 9/16/cis 11과 15:0 iso 2 OH/16:1 cis 9였다. 검출된 지방산 중에서 35종은 V. cholerae를 동정하는데 주요한 인자로 작용되었다 지방산분포를 UPGMA(비가중수리분석)으로 dendrogram을 작성한 결과 V. cholerae non-O!은 V. cholerae O1보다 V. choleare non-O1 중에서 O2, O5, O8, O10, O14, O27, O37, O39, O45와 O69의 총 10종류 혈청을 대상으로 지방산 조성에 의한 유사성을 검토한 결과 유사도가 92% 이상 수준에서 7개의 아종을 형성하여 혈청형과 지방산 조성간에는 유의할 만한 상관관계가 있었다. 따라서 V. cholerae non-O1의 동정 및 역학적인 조사시 지방산 분석은 유용하게 활용될수 있음을 알 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 비브리오 패혈증 예방과 치료에 유용한 항생제를 제시하기 위해 V. vulnificus의 독소유전자 분포와 항생제 내성을 분석하였다. 2015년부터 2017년까지 3년간 전남지역에서 발생한 비브리오 패혈증 환자로부터 분리되어 보관된 18균주와 전남지역에서 채취된 어패류 및 횟집 수족관수에서 분리된 5균주, 총 23균주를 대상으로 하였다. 실험에 사용된 V. vulnificus 23균주 모두 V. vulnificus로 재확인되었다. V. vulnificus 균주의 독소유전자를 분석한 결과, 23균주 중 19균주(82.6%)에서 RtxA 독소유전자가 확인되었고, 23균주 모두에서 viuB와 vvhA 독소유전자가 검출되었다. 이러한 결과는 독소유전자의 검출율이 기존 보고에 비해 높은 것이며, 실험에 사용한 모든 V. vulnificus 균주가 1개 이상의 독소유전자를 보유한 것으로 생선회 섭취와 상처를 통한 비브리오 패혈증 감염의 위험성이 상존하고 있었다. 따라서 횟집 종사자 등에 대한 비브리오 패혈증 예방 교육이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다. V. vulnificus에 대한 항생제 내성 실험결과 cefoxitin 항생제에 94.4%가 내성을 나타내었고, chloramphenicol과 tetracycline 등 14종의 항생제에 감수성을 나타내었다. 비브리오 패혈증 치료에 chloramphenicol과 tetracycline 항생제를 사용하는 현 치료법이 유용한 것으로 판단되었다.

The classical biotype strains of the Vibrio cholerae O1 serogroup harbor the biotype-specific cholera-toxin encoding phage (CTX) $CTX^{cla}$, and the El Tor biotype strains contain CTX-1. Although the classical biotype strains have become extinct, a remnant of classical CTX phage is transferred to the El Tor biotype strains. The prototype El Tor strains, which produce the biotype-specific cholera toxin, are now being replaced by atypical El Tor variant strains producing classical biotype cholera toxin. The genome sequences of the CTX phages in atypical El Tor strains indicate that the CTX phages in atypical El Tor strains are a mosaic of $CTX^{cla}$ and CTX-1. Before the emergence of atypical El Tor stains in the early 1990s, unusual pre-seventh pandemic strains were isolated in the US Gulf Coast between 1973 and 1986. These strains have characteristics of atypical El Tor strains since they are El Tor biotype strains containing $CTX^{cla}$, yet the genome sequence of this CTX phage indicates that it is different from $CTX^{cla}$ and is therefore classified separately as $CTX^{US\;Gulf}$.

Olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) is the major species developed for aquaculture in South Korea. Over the long history of olive flounder aquaculture, complex and diverse diseases have been a major problem, negatively impacting industrial production. Vibriosis is a prolific disease which continuously damages olive flounder aquaculture. A bacterial disease survey was performed from January to June 2017 on 20 olive flounder farms on Jeju Island. A total of 1710 fish were sampled, and bacteria from the external and internal organs of 560 fish were collected. Bacterial strains were identified using 16 s rRNA sequencing. Twenty-seven species and 184 strains of Vibrio were isolated during this survey, and phylogenetic analysis was performed. Bacterial isolates were investigated for the distribution of pathogenic and non-pathogenic species, as well as bacterial presence in tested organs was characterized. V. gigantis and V. scophthalmi were the dominant non-pathogenic and pathogenic strains isolated during this survey, respectively. This study provides data on specific Vibrio spp. isolated from cultured olive flounder in an effort to provide direction for future research and inform aquaculture management practices.

Seventy-five Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolates from the surface seawater of the Geum River Estuary area, on the west coast of Korea, were analyzed for the presence of virulence genes and susceptibility to 17 different antimicrobials. All 75 isolates were examined for the presence of two virulence genes (tdh or trh) using polymerase chain reaction; Only one of the isolates possessed the tdh or trh gene. According to the results of disk diffusion susceptibility tests, all of the strains were resistant to penicillin G, 92.0% were resistant to ampicillin, 82.7% were resistant to amoxicillin, 2.7% were resistant to ciprofloxacin, 2.7% were resistant to trimethoprim, 1.3% were resistant to cephalothin, and 1.3% were resistant to erythromycin. However, all of the strains were susceptible to amikacin, cefoxitin, chloramphenicol, gentamycin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, nitrofurantoin, rifampin, streptomycin, and tetracycline. The average minimum inhibitory concentrations for ampicillin for V. parahaemolyticus was 557.6 ㎍/mL. These results not only provide novel insight into the necessity for seawater sanitation in Geum river estuary area, but they help reduce the risk of contamination of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria.

Authors studies on the isolation of non-sucrose fermentation Vibrio species such as V. parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus and V. damsela from sea water, shellfishes and various algae at Ulleung island in the east of Korea on summer in 1985. Authors carried out test for isolated strains to biochemical characteristics, halophilism, hemolysis and serological reaction. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Strains isolated from total specimens were 25 strains of V. parahaemolyticus, 2 strains of V. vulnificus and 1 strain of V. damsela, respectively. 2. Isolated frequency of Vibrio species from sea water and marine products was lower than on specimens in the southern sea of Korea from 1980 to 1985. 3. On hemolysis reaction on blood agar media using human and rabbit erythrocytes, 14 strains among 25 strains of V. parahaemolyticus isolated were positive, and V. vulnificus and V. damsela were positive, respectively. 4. The distributions of serotypes of V. parahaemolyticus isolated were from O1 group to O10 group, and from K 10 to K 69. The results of K serotypes were as follows ; serotype K 10 and K 33 were 2 strains, serotype K 59 and K 69 were 1 strain, respectively. And 2 strains of V. vulnificus isolated were not agglutinated by antiserum of V. vulnificus. Therefore, the probability is that 2 strains of V. vulnificus isolated were other serotypes distributed on sea weater and marine products of Ulleung island of Korea.
