A total of 17 isolates of Vibrio mimicus from patients, 29 from environment and 2 from food was examined for toxigenicity. Sixteen (94%) clinical isolates and one (50%) from food produced TDH-like toxin, whereas none of the environmental isolates did so. The food from which V. mimicus with TDH-like toxin production was isolated, was one which had caused food poisoning. Only one environmental strain produced CT-like toxin, whilst ST-like toxin was not detected from any strains tested.
对从患者身上分离出的17株拟态弧菌、从环境中分离出的29株以及从食品中分离出的2株进行了产毒检测。16株(94%)临床分离株和1株(50%)食品分离株产生了类TDH毒素,而环境分离株均未产生。分离出产生类TDH毒素的拟态弧菌的食品曾导致食物中毒。仅1株环境菌株产生了类CT毒素,而在所检测的任何菌株中均未检测到类ST毒素。
