title: The phenomenon of toxin secretion by vibrios and aeromonads.
abstract: Vibrio and Aeromonas species have a remarkable ability to secrete extracellular proteins, including toxins, haemagglutinins and other virulence factors. Here we discuss the pathways and potential mechanisms of toxin secretion through the double-membraned envelopes which surround these organisms.
