Journal ArticleDOI

Global Dissemination of Vibrio parahaemolyticus Serotype O3:K6 and Its Serovariants

TL;DR: This review traces the genesis, virulence features, molecular characteristics, serotype variants, environmental occurrence, and global spread of this unique clone of V. parahaemolyticus that has now spread into Asia, America, Africa, and Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spread of Cholera with Newer Clones of Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor, Serotype Inaba, in India

TL;DR: During 2004 and 2005, cholera was recorded in 15 states of India, with 7 outbreaks, and the newly emerged Vibrio cholerae O1 Inaba had a different antibiogram and ribotype, different pulsotypes, and different mutations in the wbeT gene.
Journal Article

Occurrence, significance & molecular epidemiology of cholera outbreaks in West Bengal.

TL;DR: Investigation of two cholera outbreaks in India found that both outbreaks were caused by V. cholerae O1 (Inaba/Ogawa), and PFGE pattern of the isolates from the two outbreaks revealed that they were clonal in origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular tracking of the lineage of strains of Vibrio cholerae O1 biotype El Tor associated with a cholera outbreak in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India.

TL;DR: RAPD fingerprinting and ribotyping techniques revealed that all the V. cholerae strains associated with the outbreak in these islands were clonal in nature and identical to a population of isolates obtained from Kolkata since 1993.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first outbreak of acute diarrhea due to a pandemic strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus O3:K6 in Kolkata, India.

TL;DR: Due to its spread in many countries with identical phenotypic and genotypic features the recently emerged V. parahaemolyticus has now been termed a pandemic strain which can be identified by group-specific GSPCR based on the sequence variation in the toxRS gene.
