“…Many of their species, such as Vibrio vulnificus, Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio anguillarum, Virbio alginolyticus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Vibrio salmonicida, cause mass death and vibriosis (marked by infection on skin and other organs) in many cultured fish, shrimps, and shellfish [81,84]. Among the Vibrio spp., around 12 species of them cause infections in humans, which can be classified into cholera (by Vibrio cholerae) and noncholera Vibrio infections (by Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Vibrio vulnificus) [85].…”

In aquaculture industry, fish, shellfish, and aquatic plants are cultivated in fresh, salt, or brackish waters. The increasing demand of aquatic products has stimulated the rapid growth of aquaculture industries. How to effectively monitor and control water quality is one of the key concerns for aquaculture industry to ensure high productivity and high quality. There are four major categories of water quality concerns that affect aquaculture cultivations, namely, (1) physical parameters, e.g., pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and salinity, (2) organic contaminants, (3) biochemical hazards, e.g., cyanotoxins, and (4) biological contaminants, i.e., pathogens. While the physical parameters are affected by climate changes, the latter three are considered as environmental factors. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of sensors, biosensors, and analytical technologies available for monitoring aquaculture water quality. They include low-cost commercial sensors and sensor network setups for physical parameters. They also include chromatography, mass spectrometry, biochemistry, and molecular methods (e.g., immunoassays and polymerase chain reaction assays), culture-based method, and biophysical technologies (e.g., biosensors and nanosensors) for environmental contamination factors. According to the different levels of sophistication of various analytical techniques and the information they can provide (either fine fingerprint, highly accurate quantification, semiquantification, qualitative detection, or fast screening), we will comment on how they may be used as complementary tools, as well as their potential and gaps toward current demand of real-time, online, and/or onsite detection.

Water is one of the most vital elements of ecosystem and human being, but unfortunately nowadays, the pollution of surface and drinking water is an alarming problem. The present work deals with the assessment of physicochemical and bacteriological profile of several pond, jar and tube-well water samples to ensure its suitability for using and drinking. Total 30 samples were randomly selected and collected from Nakla Paurosova of Sherpur district by following the standard procedure. Bacteriological analysis was carried out by following the standard bacteriological methods. Most of the surface water sampling points were polluted by dumping of waste, cattle wash and were not suitable for drinking or other domestic purposes. Among three heavy metals, only Iron was detected in six tube-well water samples, one was also positive to arsenic, rest of the water bodies were negative to all of these metals.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a leading cause of seafood‐borne bacterial gastroenteritis in humans. Since its discovery in 1950, this bacterium has been isolated in widespread outbreaks and in sporadic cases of gastroenteritis worldwide. Although the exotoxin, thermostable direct hemolysin, had been the focus of extensive research on the pathogenicity of V. parahaemolyticus, the whole‐genome sequencing of a clinical isolate, RIMD2210633 strain, was a breakthrough in this field. The possession of two sets of gene clusters for type III secretion systems (T3SS1 and T3SS2) was unveiled by that genome project. T3SS is a protein export apparatus that delivers bacterial proteins, called effectors, directly into the host's cytosol, to disrupt host cell function. The subsequent studies have established that T3SS2, which is encoded in an 80 kb pathogenicity island called V. parahaemolyticus pathogenicity island (Vp‐PAI), is closely related to enteropathogenicity. Recent functional analyses of Vp‐PAI‐encoded genes revealed the sophisticated mechanisms in V. parahaemolyticus for sensing the intestinal environment and host cell contact, and a dozen T3SS2‐exported proteins encoded in Vp‐PAI. In this review, we summarize recent advances in V. parahaemolyticus research regarding the control of the expression of Vp‐PAI‐encoded genes, structural components and the secretory regulation of T3SS2, and the biological activities of T3SS2‐exported effectors. Thus, Vp‐PAI‐encoded T3SS2 becomes an important key in the postgenomic era to shed light on the enteropathogenic mechanism of V. parahaemolyticus.
