Sensitivity test for detection of V. parahaemolyticus in pure cultures and in spiked shrimp samples by real-time turbidimetry. The curves from left to right indicate decreasing concentrations of CFU from bacterial colonies [2.0¹ to 2.0^-1 CFU per reaction]. (a) Detection of V. parahaemolyticus in pure cultures; (b) detection of V. parahaemolyticus in spiked shrimp samples.
