Abstract

The authors isolated Vibrio parahaemolyticus from sea water, sea mud and various marine products in Busan shore area from 1981 to 1982, Among 100 isolated strains, 66 strains showed positive reaction in Kanagawa phenomenon. With the above 66 strains, the authors carred out test for detecting hemolysis activity of V.parahaemolyticus on human, rabbit, chicken, pig, goat, sheep and cow erythrocytes, in different media, such as modified Wagatsuma, nutrient, peptone and brain heart infusion agar plates media. The following results were obtained: 1. The media which can be used for Kanagawa phenomenon of V. parahoemolyticus were modified Wagatsuma, nutrient, peptone agar media, but not brain heart infusion agar medium. 2. The erythrocytes which showed positive Kanagawa phenomenon were those of human, rabbit, chicken and pig, but sheep, goat and cow erythrocytes showed no sensitivities.
