Vibrio cholerae e uma bacteria aquatica gram-negativa, com forma de virgula e altamente movel, agente causador da pandemia de colera em humanos. Habita estuarios costeiros, deltas fluviais e ambientes marinhos quentes, frequentemente associada ao plancton, especialmente copepodos. Esta bacteria facultativamente anaerobia se propaga por agua e alimentos contaminados, causando diarreia aquosa grave com grande impacto em saude publica.
