The organism has been recovered most reliably from vomitus and from stools during rapid gastrointestinal transit (13 ).
Among these 20 events, type B toxin was identified in at least one specimen from 17 events (85%) (3 from blood, 13 from food, 1 from vomitus), type E in 2 events (10%) (1 from blood, 1 from food), and type A in 1 event (5%) (food).
These findings are consistent with prior research that shows that H. pylori is recovered reliably from vomitus (up to 30,000 CFU/mL) and can also can be grown from aerosolized vomitus collected at short distances (<1.2 m) (13 ).
Norovirus can be transmitted by contaminated food and water, person to person spread, and exposure to aerosols from vomitus [10] [12].
Don't you want to take that option away from those vomitus parents?
Bacteria have been isolated from feces, vomitus, external surfaces and internal organs of house fly samples [7].
The house fly, Musca domestica, has long been considered as a potential agent for disease transmission, and bacteria have been isolated from feces, vomitus, external surfaces, and internal organs of this species [5], [7].
The need to neutralize the acid from the vomitus is highlighted with respondents advising pregnant women to rinse with clean water only after vomiting.
The proteins from parasite vomitus with high d N/d S values are saposins, lipid interacting proteins with cytolytic activity (Bruhn 2005), and NPC2, previously described as involved in binding of cholesterol (Xu et al. 2007).
