Using fresh tilapia fish samples collected from Riyadh market in Saudi Arabia, this study attempted to phenotypically detect\n V. vulnificus<\/jats:italic>\n using specific media, such as thiosulphate citrate bile salt sucrose agar, CHROMagar\u2122\n Vibrio<\/jats:italic>\n , and cellobiose polymyxin colistin agar, while Api 20NE was employed. Molecular detection was conducted using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, to characterize the clinical (genotype B) and environmental strains (genotype A) of\n V. vulnificus<\/jats:italic>\n . Virulence genes, such as hemolysin A (\n Vvh<\/jats:italic>\n A) and\n Viu<\/jats:italic>\n B which encodes vulnibactin siderophores, were employed to detect both strains, in addition to capsular polysaccharide (\n CPS<\/jats:italic>\n ) and allele 1 genes. Virulence-correlated (\n vcg<\/jats:italic>\n ) genes\n vcg<\/jats:italic>\n C and\n vcg<\/jats:italic>\n E were also considered. The multidrug resistance of both strains to different antibiotics was tested, while whole-cell protein profiles were used to examine their differences based on Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis. The tilapia fish contained type A and B of\n V. vulnificus<\/jats:italic>\n at a ratio of 12% and 4%, respectively. Generation times of the clinical and environmental strains were 14.45 min and 12.04 min, respectively. Analysis of the 16S rRNA,\n Vvh<\/jats:italic>\n A,\n CPS<\/jats:italic>\n ,\n Viu<\/jats:italic>\n B,\n vcg<\/jats:italic>\n C, and\n vcg<\/jats:italic>\n E in type A and B revealed that both strains comprised all virulent genes in different ratios. Raw tilapia fish contained\n V. vulnificus<\/jats:italic>\n type A and B, so care in handling is essential or during cooking these kinds of fish.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/fpd.2024.0147","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,28]],"date-time":"2025-03-28T04:41:37Z","timestamp":1743136897000},"page":"768-780","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Prevalence of Flesh-Eating Bacteria (\n Vibrio Vulnificus<\/i>\n ) Type A (Environmental) and Type B (Clinical) in Tilapia Fish Samples: Phenotypic and Molecular Characterizations"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5387-8026","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hany M.","family":"Yehia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Food Science and Nutrition, College of Food and Agriculture Science, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."},{"name":"Department of Food Science and Nutrition, Faculty of Home Economics, Helwan University, Helwan, Egypt."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nourhan H.","family":"Mohamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scientific Research Program (Research Accessibility Team), Faculty of Medicine, New Giza University, Giza, Egypt."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shereen M.","family":"Korany","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Botany and Microbiology, Faculty of Science, Helwan University, Cairo, Egypt."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abeer S.","family":"Aloufi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biology Department, Faculty of Science, Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manal F.","family":"El-Khadragy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biology Department, Faculty of Science, Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdulhakeem","family":"Alzahrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Food Science and Nutrition, College of Food and Agriculture Science, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mosffer M.","family":"Al-Dagal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Food Science and Nutrition, College of Food and Agriculture Science, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1743-422X-10-343"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1462-2920.13955"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00248-008-9413-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9781118684856.ch9"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s002849900346"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/mra.00094-21"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JB.188.5.1987-1998.2006"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_9_1","unstructured":"Colwell RR (ed.).
