Open Learning Web site on Enteric pathogens
-------------------------------------------
 
Dear Friends of the Open Learning Web site on Enteric pathogens
 
A New lecture is available at 
http://www.aclisassari.com/acli-openlearning
 
Violeta T. Pardío Sedas (Mexico), Influence of environmental 
factors on the presence of Vibrio cholerae and enteric bacteria 
in a Marine Environment.
 
The deteriorating condition of the Gulf of Mexico estuarine and 
marine ecosystems has led to concerns about the effects on eco-
system health within the region. Recent studies have shown links 
between pathogens and changing ocean conditions, including human 
diseases such as cholera. 
 
The lecture examines the aquatic environmental factors that in-
fluence the prevalence of enteric bacteria, giving particular 
attention to Vibrio cholerae which has caused epidemics in Mex-
ico, where epidemiological studies have demonstrated that people 
living in coastal states are at high risk of contracting dis-
ease.
 
 
Ciao, Salvatore Rubino
