title: [Isolation of halophilic vibrios as possible agents of food poisoning (author's transl)].
abstract: Seventy-six halophilic vibrio strains were isolated from different marine sources such as coastal waters, fishes and mussels. Twenty strains were identified as Vibrio parahaemolyticus, 44 as Vibrio alginolyticus and 12 other strains could not be classified because of their atypical biochemical activities. Further investigations are necessary in order to assess if the present strains of V. parahaemolyticus can have a role in food poisoning outbreaks or human sporadic enteritis in our geographic area.
