The seasonal variation in the occurrence of V. vulnificus in relation to water temperature and salinity was studied along the Dutch coast. In two consecutive years V. vulnificus strains could be isolated in August when the water temperature was highest. The indole-positive strains isolated from North Sea water samples were identical to most strains isolated from human disease and from the environment. However, strains isolated from four of five patients living in countries around the North Sea were different from the North Sea isolates in that they were indole-negative and have a lower NaCl tolerance.
沿着荷兰海岸研究了创伤弧菌的发生与水温及盐度的季节变化关系。在连续两年中,当水温最高的八月可以分离出创伤弧菌菌株。从北海海水样本中分离出的吲哚阳性菌株与从人类疾病和环境中分离出的大多数菌株相同。然而,从生活在北海周边国家的五名患者中的四名分离出的菌株与北海分离株不同,因为它们是吲哚阴性且对氯化钠的耐受性较低。
