    Abstract:
    We report the results of a study concerning the characteristics of 19 Non-O1 Vibrio cholerae strains isolated from the incoming sewage and the effluents of the treatment plant in Bologna (Italy). These strains were compared to those of a strain of Vibrio cholerae biotype El Tor. The behaviour of the Non-O1 Vibrios was seen to be quite similar to those of the El Tor biotype in all aspects studied and antigenic correlations were found by means of immunoblotting and cytotoxin production on VERO cells. Since these bacterial strains may be pathogenic in humans, we believe it useful to describe some of their characteristics.
