title: Re-emergence of Vibrio cholerae serogroup O139 during June-August, 1997 in Yavatmal (Maharashtra).
abstract: A clone of V. cholerae serogroup O139 which emerged as a novel epidemic strain, was reported from this region in 1993 as from many other parts of India and adjoining countries. The decline in the isolation rate of this organism in subsequent years was followed by a sudden increase in 1997, this requires careful monitoring.
