Abstract

The pathogenic mechanisms involved in a newly described systemic disease in Homarus americanus (American lobster) caused by Vibrio fluvialis like microorganism are determined and characterized. The findings support the hypothesis that these V. fluvialis like organisms were responsible for the originally described systemic disease, which is called limp lobster disease.

Abstract

An extracellular cytolysin from Vibrio tubiashii was purified by sequential hydrophobic interaction chromatography with phenyl-Sepharose CL-4B and gel filtration with Sephacryl S-200. This protein is sensitive to heat and proteases, is inhibited by cholesterol, and has a molecular weight of 59,000 and an isoelectric point of 5.3. In addition to lysing various erythrocytes, it is cytolytic and/or cytotoxic to Chinese hamster ovary cells, Caco-2 cells, and Atlantic menhaden liver cells in tissue culture. Lysis of erythrocytes occurs by a multihit process that is dependent on temperature and pH. Twelve of the first 17 N-terminal amino acid residues (Asp-Asp-Tyr-Val-Pro-Val-Val-Glu-Lys-Val-Tyr-Tyr-Ile-Thr-Ser-Ser-Lys) are identical to those of the Vibrio vulnificus cytolysin.

12. Scanning electron microscopy of cristispira species in chesapeake bay oysters.

Author

Tall BD and Nauman RK

Abstract

Scanning electron microscopy was employed to observe the physical interactions between Cristispira spp. and the crystalline style of the Chesapeake Bay oyster (Crassostrea virginica Gmelin 1791). Cristispira organisms were found associated with both the inner and outer layers of the posterior two-thirds of the style. The spirochetes possessed blunt-tipped ends, a cell diameter range of 0.6 to 0.8 mum, and distended spirochetal envelopes which followed the contour of the cells. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the distension of the envelope was probably due to the containment of numerous axial filaments. In addition, they were found to possess two distinct spiral shapes which were dependent on whether their location was inside or on the surface of the style.
