Abstract:

Aeromanas salmonicida belonging to the genus Aeromonas is a common pathogen that causes furunculosis and septicemia in variety of fishes. It infects cold blooded vertebrates living at low temperature mainly salmonid fish hence named salmonicida. Aeromanas salmonicida is considered to be a fish pathogen, non-pathogenic for humans as it cannot grow at 37ºC. However, In our laboratory culture plates, blood culture bottle and broths were incubated twice at 37ºC and each time same type of colonies were isolated which were identified as A. samonicida by Vitek 2 compact automated system. By far one case has been reported regarding its isolation from human biological sample. Here we present the second case report of A. salmonicida isolated from the human blood.
