title: Isolation of Aeromonas salmonicida in association with purple-pigmented bacteria in sediment from a Scottish loch.
abstract: Aeromonas salmonicida was recovered in close association with an unidentified purple-pigmented organism, which was isolated from sediment in a Scottish loch during November (1997) and February (1998). However, there has not been any evidence of A. salmonicida infections, specifically furunculosis, associated with the fish in this loch.
