Biochemical and Serological Differentiation of Several Pigment-Producing Aeromonads

A pigment-producing aeromonad isolated from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was serologically and biochemically indistinguishable from Aeromonas liquefaciens ATCC 14715. Aeromonas salmonicida, whose presence in the Maritime Provinces of Canada has never been confirmed, was clearly differentiated from...

Description
Summary:A pigment-producing aeromonad isolated from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) was serologically and biochemically indistinguishable from Aeromonas liquefaciens ATCC 14715. Aeromonas salmonicida, whose presence in the Maritime Provinces of Canada has never been confirmed, was clearly differentiated from the pigmented strains of A. liquefaciens.
