Other Comments:

The article seems me interesting and of great significance, but I permit me to do some observations:

1. The names of the microorganisms in latin, have spelling errors, is Citrobacter and not Citrobactor, as well as is V. parahemolyticus and not V. parahemolytica.

2. In the section of Materials and methods, it is not described in adequate form if culture was carried out and biochemical identification tests.
3. There are not keywords.
