Detection of Vibrio vulnificus biotypes 1 and 2 in eels and oysters by PCR amplification.

abstract：:The consumption of fresh tomatoes has been linked to numerous food-borne outbreaks involving various serovars of Salmonella enterica. Recent advances in our understanding of plant-microbe interactions have shown that human enteric pathogenic bacteria, including S. enterica, are adapted to survive in the plant environm...
