Aeromonas spp. as a causative agent of acute diarrhoea in children
Original language description
Aeromonas spp. are known to do cause acute gastroenteritis. Often predisposed are also very young children. We described four cases of an acute watery diarrhoea due to aeromonads. All children were up to one year old and by these patients aeromonads wererepeatedly isolated from stool samples. For two of them hospital care was needed to improve their state of health. Our findings should contribute to the knowledge, if there is any link between such diarrhoea cases and the exact Aeromonas species. Aeromonads were obtained from stool samples during a routine survey in 2003 and 2004. Isolates were identified by commercially available biochemical kit ENTEROtest24 (Pliva-Lachema), conventional biochemical testing, fatty acid analysis and ribotyping. In allused methods type strains of all so far described species were included in the study. Isolation of aeromonads were performed from two-week to six-week period. In two cases of diarrhoea we identified A.
