The antigenic structure of V.cholerae is similar to that of other members of the family Enterobacteriaceae, flagellar H antigen and a somatic(Lipopolysaccharide,LPS)O antigen. The former does not distinguish between pathogenic Vibrio and other nonpathogenic members of the family, Cell membrane DNA Pilus 一Nucleoid -Cytoplasm Ribosom Flagellum 17
17 V.cholerae is
but the O antigen does allow the differentiation.Only V.cholerae carrying the somatic antigens 01 or 0139 are associated with cholera. Capsule -Cell membrane DNA Pilus Cytoplasm Ribo 18
