    Abstract:

    Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an intracellular pathogen responsible for seafood-borne outbreaks in coastal cities. The aim of this study was to investigate the profiles of V. parahaemolyticus in seafood from Shanghai in 2015-2016. 201 suspected V. parahaemolyticus strains were isolated from 206 aquatic samples by rapid separable and detectable assays,including GB/T4789.2013,polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP). Suspected colonies were streaked onto CHROMagar Vibrio agar plate to determine the most probable number(MPN). DNA from the purple colonies was extracted for use as a template for PCR and LAMP detection. A total of 71 samples were collected from the sea wharf,59 of these samples were tested positive for V. parahaemolyticus with levels as high as 88.36 MPN/hg. In contrast,the prevalence rate was 91.11% with levels as high as 1 361.76 MPN/hg for samples collected in the marketplace. The prevalence rates of tdh+ and trh+ were 1.6%,1.0% respectively. These results showed that shrimp was a particular concern for total V. parahaemolyticus and V. parahaemolyticus(tdh+/trh+)contamination. Furthermore,the seafood marketplace has a higher contamination rate than natural environment. As shown in this study,the post-harvest practices increase the prevalence rate and level of V. parahaemolyticus in seafood. These results can be used to control outbreak of foodborne diseases in Shanghai.
