Vibrio furnissii infection

| Description |
Vibrio furnissii, first described as a gasproducing biovar of Vibrio fluvialis, is associated with human acute gastroenteritis. The pathology of V. furnissii in gastroenteritis is potentially related to hemolysin production, as it has been shown to have in vitro hemolytic activity.
