Abstract
The present study investigated the distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in water samples and aquatic animals (fish and shrimp) from major aquaculture farms along the Korean coast in 2018. V. parahaemolyticus is the most common pathogen causing seafood-borne illness. The strain was detected in 34.7% of all samples tested, and was detected at higher levels during summer to autumn when the water temperature is higher. Although more than 90.0% of V. parahaemolyticus isolates were sensitive to 13 of the 15 antimicrobials tested, which is useful for treating V. parahaemolyticus infectious disease, the isolates exhibited higher resistance to two antibiotics (colistin and ampicillin), which should be excluded as treatment options for these infections. Koreans typically enjoy consuming raw seafood. To reduce the potential human health risk of raw seafood consumption, the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of V. parahaemolyticus in aquaculture environments should be continuously valuated.
