ABSTRACT
The goal of
this project was to develop methods for the differentiation
and enumeration of Vibrio vulnificus cells present
in the environment in the "viable but nonculturable"
(VBNC) state. The investigator completed all of
this project's major goals, including successfully conducting
studies on the detection and characterization of VBNC-specific
cold shock proteins. Although the investigator submitted
draft reports, the S-K Program does not expect to receive
a final report for this project.
