Abstract
The genus Aeromonas is considered as indigenous prokaryote to aquatic environments. These genus members are capable of colonizing in water bodies such as potable water, sewage and sea water. Aeromonas sp. is the most significant opportunistic pathogen in humans with the potential to cause different kinds of infections in blood, tissues, intestine, and dermis. The leading pathogenic species includes Aeromonas hydrophila, A. caviae and A. veronii. The ubiquitous nature in the environment associated with the virulence of these bacteria has been reported. Evidence for the waterborne transmission to humans by Aeromonas sp. is also documented. The Aeromonas found in wastewater and its impact on marine environment is hardly discussed and its bibliography is lacking. The aim of this research was to identify the major biomarker genes in Aeromonas sp., and it's in silico sequence analysis.
期刊介绍：
Emerging Contaminants is an outlet for world-leading research addressing problems associated with environmental contamination caused by emerging contaminants and their solutions. Emerging contaminants are defined as chemicals that are not currently (or have been only recently) regulated and about which there exist concerns regarding their impact on human or ecological health. Examples of emerging contaminants include disinfection by-products, pharmaceutical and personal care products, persistent organic chemicals, and mercury etc. as well as their degradation products. We encourage papers addressing science that facilitates greater understanding of the nature, extent, and impacts of the presence of emerging contaminants in the environment; technology that exploits original principles to reduce and control their environmental presence; as well as the development, implementation and efficacy of national and international policies to protect human health and the environment from emerging contaminants.
