Aeromonas veronii (original) (raw)
Aeromonas veronii is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium found in fresh water and in association with animals. It can be a pathogen of humans and a beneficial symbiont of leeches. In humans A. veronii can cause diseases ranging from wound infections and diarrhea to sepsis in immunocompromised patients. Humans treated with medicinal leeches after vascular surgery can be at risk for infection from A. veronii and are commonly placed on prophylactic antibiotics. Most commonly ciprofloxacin is used but there have been reports of resistant strains leading to infection. In leeches, this bacterium is thought to function in the digestion of blood, provision of nutrients, or preventing other bacteria from growing.

(en) Aeromonas veronii es una eubacteria Gram negativa, con forma de bastón que se puede encontrar en la naturaleza en estado libre en ambientes acuáticos y en asociación con animales. A. veronii puede ser un patógeno de humanos, a la vez que un simbionte beneficioso de hirudíneos. En humanos, A. veronii puede causar enfermedades, desde infecciones de heridas y diarrea hasta septicemia en pacientes inmunodeprimidos. En hirudíneos, se cree que esta bacteria contribuye a la digestión de la sangre, la provisión de nutrientes y la prevención del crecimiento de otras bacterias en el seno del animal. (es) |
