Role of iron, capsule, and toxins in the pathogenicity of Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2 for mice.

The virulence mechanisms of Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2 have been studied and compared with those of biotype 1 in mice as the experimental animals. Biotype 2 isolates from European eels were as virulent for mice as biotype 1 strains (50% lethal dose, about 10(5) CFU per mouse); a septicemic infectio...
