Vibriosis in Human and Animals of Iraq

Abstract

A species from the genus Vibrio is the cause of the bacterial disease known as vibriosis. About 12 diseases from these species, which are found in a diverse range of aquatic and marine habitats among the more than hundred species of the gene Vibrio, infect people. Vibriosis infections cause by Cholera and non-cholera. cholera is a severe form of diarrhea that, if left untreated, can quickly be fatal. It is primarily spread through contaminated water and direct personal contact. non-cholera Vibrio spp. such as (Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Vibrio vulnificus) are generally contacted through exposure to sea water or by consuming contaminated raw or undercooked seafood. Vibriosis incidence is favoured by climate change and rising temperature seas and rivers water are although their concentration undergoes a notable increase in the warm months due to favorable ecological conditions. Outbreak cholera and non-cholera in many countries of the world but of Iraq only Vibrio cholera in human except one case reported in Basra which is Vibrio parahaemolyticus. In the previous studies, it was show that other types of non-cholera Vibrio were isolated from Iraq shrimp in Basra governorate. The purpose of this study is to show cases infection of cholera and non-cholera in human and animals of Iraq.
