RESUMO
Clinical and environmental isolates of Aeromonas species (five A. hydrophila isolates, three A. caviae isolates, and two A. sobria isolates) were tested for their adherence to HEp-2 cells. Clinical isolates of A. hydrophila and A. sobria exhibited aggregative adherence similar to that presented by enteroadherent-aggregative Escherichia coli. Bacterial aggregates adhered to cells with a typical "stacked-brick" appearance. In contrast, A. caviae strains showed a diffuse adherence pattern.
