  • Title: [Isolation of Vibrio cholerae no-01 in the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica].
    Author: Antillón F, Rodríguez E.
    Journal: Rev Biol Trop; 1992 Aug; 40(2):231-2. PubMed ID: 1307117.
    Abstract:
    In a bacteriological study on samples of bivalves, mud and surface waters from the Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica, 18 strains of non-01 Vibrio cholerae and 50 of V. mimicus were isolated. The samples were enriched in alkaline peptone water, and streaked on MacConkey and inositol-brilliant green bile agars. Biochemical and serological tests were used for their identification. Both species were isolated from all sampling sites (Lepanto, Jicaral and Puntarenas) with either of the two agar media, even though these were not specific for vibrios.
