Sea level rise and the anthropogenic warming of the world's oceans is not only an
environmental tragedy, but these changes also result in a significant threat to public health …

The effects of global warming are not limited to rising global temperatures and have set in
motion a complex chain of events contributing to climate change. A consequence of global …

Since plastics degrade very slowly, they remain in the environment on much longer
timescales than most natural organic substrates and provide a novel habitat for colonization …

Sterilized seawater was used to assess the effects of temperature and salinity on the survival
of Vibrio vulnificus. In the temperature range of 13 to 22 degrees C, numbers of V. vulnificus …

Study Objective: To describe the clinical and epidemiologic features of Vibrio vulnificus
infections. Design: Case series based on notifiable disease report forms and patient medical …

Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus, which are native to estuaries globally, are
agents of seafood-borne or wound infections, both potentially fatal. Like all vibrios …

This study investigated the temperature and salinity parameters associated with waters and
oysters linked to food-borne Vibrio vulnificus infections. V. vulnificus was enumerated in …

Recent taxonomic advances have now implicated several different Vibrio species as human
pathogens. While the most common clinical presentation of Vibrio infection continues to be …

Background Vibrio vulnificus is a gram-negative bacterium that causes septicaemia and
wound infection. Cases occur sporadically, and no previous outbreaks due to a common …

This chapter discuss the taxonomy, infections, pathogenesis, genetic heterogeneity,
distribution in estuarine environments and the environmental parameters that contribute to …
