Growth of and toxin production by Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas sobria at low temperatures.
The effects of different temperatures on the growth and toxin production of Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas sobria were studied. The results showed that these Aeromonas species are not only able to grow at low temperatures (e.g. at 4 and 10 degrees C) but may also produce cytotoxin, hemolysin and enterotoxin under suitable growth conditions.
