Abstract
A halophilic Vibrio sp. was isolated from blood cultures from a 59 yr old male with enteritis. The strain differed from V. parahaemolyticus and V. alginolyticus by its ability to ferment lactose, its production of .beta.-galactosidase and its lower NaCl tolerance. A report of this infection and a description of the isolate is presented.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
