Abstract
Forty-eight isolates of aeromonads from clinical specimens were studied. The laboratory procedures employed and the results obtained are reported in the hope that they may be of assistance to other workers in the field of diagnostic microbiology. Capability of identifying these organisms in the laboratory will contribute to a better understanding of the role of this group of organisms in human disease as well as in diseases in other animals.
