A. Isolation and identification of Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus from oyster on HI and TCBS agar plates using BARDOT.
B. Scatter images of representative background bacterial colonies are shown.
C. PCR confirmation of scatter images of V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus colonies from select oyster samples using vpm (V. parahaemolyticus)‐ and cyt (V. vulnificus)‐specific gene primers. Selected background colonies from B did not produce any amplified products specific to V. parahaemolyticus or V. vulnificus.
