Vibrio species are natural inhabitant of the marine and estuarine environment which often causes food-borne gastroenteritis. A total of 90 seafood samples, croaker fish (Pseudotolithus senegalensis), shrimps (Penaeus notialis), and blue crab (Callinectes sapidus), were collected from landing sites along the Lagos Lagoon, Lagos State Nigeria. Physicochemical parameters of water samples were also monitored using standard methods. Samples were collected for 2 years between 2011- 2013. They were examined for incidence of Vibrio species using both biochemical and molecular methods. Biochemical identification of the isolates was confirmed with Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and nucleotide sequencing using V. 16S-700F and V. 16S- 325R primers. 27 isolates were obtained from the samples examined. Dissolved oxygen and conductivity showed a significant difference (P < 0.05) in the Lagos lagoon. 16 isolates were presumptively identified as Vibrio species. PCR identified 7 isolates as Vibrio species; DNA sequencing identified the 7 isolates as V. parahaemolyticus (5), V. fluvialis (1) and Shewanella algae (1). The results reveals incidence of Vibrio species in seafood samples from Lagos lagoon.
