[zoonotic aspects of yersinia enterocolitica infections (author's transl)].yersinia enterocolitica (y.e.) is presented from taxonomic point of view. the increased accounts of isolates performed during the last years from both humans and animals are described. y.e., which is of great interest both in human and veterinary medicine, has been isolated in an increased frequency, from domestic as well as wild animals, from different foods, and also from drinking waters. the modes of transmissions are in many parts unknown, but clinical and epidemiological data suggest that t ...1978693272
[the background of the serological cross-reaction between yersinia and brucella and the possibility of differential diagnostics by the elisa technique and the electroimmuno assay (rocket electrophoresis) (author's transl)].a strong serological cross-reaction appears between different species of genus brucella and yersinia enterocolitica (y.e.) serotype 0--9, which seriously complicates the diagnostic works of brucellosis and yersiniosis both in humans and animals. this cross-reaction makes it impossible to perform a differential serological diagnosis using common routine procedures such as the agglutination test and the complement fixation test. by the use of immunological, immunochemical and structural chemical m ...1978693273
antimicrobial susceptibility of rhamnose-positive yersinia enterocolitica.agar dilution antimicrobial susceptibility tests were carried out against rhamnose-positive y. enterocolitica strains isolated from various origins. all the strains were susceptible to aminoglycosides, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, minocycline, rifampicin, trimethprim and sulfamethoxazole. all but two strains were susceptible to polymyxin. resistnace to ampicillin, carbenicillin and cephalothin was noted with the majority of the strains.1978697262
occurrence of yersinia enterocolitica in house rats.from july 1976 to may 1977, 270 rats (259 rattus norvegicus and r. rattus) in sapporo were examined for the presence of yersinia enterocolitica in house rats. the organism was isolated in 55 rats (54 r. norvegicus and 1 r. rattus). isolated strains were determined as o group (o)3, biovar 4; o4, biovar 1; o5a, biovar 1; and o6, biovar 1. the isolation of o3, biovar 4 strains from r. norvegicus is the first in the world, as far as we know. the organism was isolated from the duodenum in 3 rats, the ...1978697364

[characteristics of the polysaccharide-containing somatic antigens isolated from the k-1 strain of the plague microbe and its antibiotic-resistant variants].immunochemical analysis of 2 polysaccharide-containing structures of the lypopolysaccharide of the plague causative agent (main somatic antigen and lipopolysaccharide) isolated from k-1 strain and a number of its antibiotic resistant mutants was carried out. it was shown that development of resistance to streptomycin alone or its combination with monomycin did not cause detectable changes in the monosaccharide composition and serological properties of the cultures tested. more significant change ...1978708003
isolation of yersinia enterocolitica from surface and well waters in ontario.yersinia enterocolitica was isolated from forty-three surface- and well-water samples and one municipal supply. in many cases these samples were negative for coliform bacteria. after incubation of membrane filters on m-endo agar les at 35 degrees c for total coliform analysis, filters were held an additional 24 h at room temperature. this method was more productive for isolation of waterborne types of y. enterocolitica than was cold enrichment in buffer alone or in combination with modified rapp ...1978709433
long-term fecal excretion and resistance induced in mice infected with yersinia enterocolitica.european isolates of yersinia enterocolitica serotypes o3 and o9 were shown to infect but not kill mice, which became fecal excreters for up to 135 days. the mice challenged with 500 50% lethal doses of the virulent wa strain of y. enterocolitica serotype o8 survived, and some excreted the virulent strain. this rodent model may be of value in assessing the ecological significance of rodents in the maintenance of y. enterocolitica.1978711321
consequences of aspartase deficiency in yersinia pestis.growing cells of yersinia pseudotuberculosis, but not those of closely related yersinia pestis, rapidly destroyed exogenous l-aspartic and l-glutamic acids, thus prompting a comparative study of dicarboxylic amino acid catabolism. rates of amino acid metabolism by resting cells of both species were determined at ph 5.5, 7.0, and 8.5. regardless of ph, y. pseudotuberculosis destroyed l-glutamic acid, l-glutamine, l-aspartic acid, and l-asparagine at rates greater than those observed for y. pestis ...1978711677
in vitro invasiveness of yersinia enterocolitica isolated from children with diarrhea.the invasiveness of yersinia enterocolitica isolated from the feces of children with diarrhea was assayed in cultured human epithelial (hep-2) cells. twenty-one of 24 strains were invasive under the test conditions. infection with y. enterocolitica was characterized clinically by exudative diarrhea in 11 cases. polymorphonuclear leukocytes were demonstrated in the feces from all three cases of exudative diarrhea studied. the results suggest a correlation between enteroinvasiveness of y. enteroco ...1978712122

[several biological properties of the surface antigens of the agent of pseudotuberculosis].capsular substance and extracellular proteins of the causative agent of pseudotuberculosis caused in the organism of guinea pigs a specific immunological reconstruction with the accumulation in the blood of antibodies in low titres, chiefly of macroglobulin type. the blood sera of these animals failed to protect the mice from lethal pseudotuberculosis infection in experiments of passive protection. surface antigens of pseudotuberculosis causative agents produced a sensitizing action on the guine ...1975769431
less frequently reported gram-negative fermentative rods.the clinical significance and distinguishing characteristics of less frequently reported gram-negative fermentative rods (pasteurella, yersinia, vibrio, aeromonas and plesiomonas, enterobacter agglomerans, and chromobacterium) are described. increased awareness of these organisms, a knowledge of possible sites in which they cause infection, and identification criteria which will separate them from similar bacteria will prepare the clinical microbiologist for the isolation and identification of t ...1976769548
immunologic phenomena in experimental rodentiosis. i. development of delayed skin reactions and peritoneal macrophage migration inhibition in guinea pigs infected with yersinia pseudotuberculosis.hypersensitivity in guinea pigs infected with yersinia pseudotuberculosis was studied by means of skin tests and the migration inhibition test using peritoneal macrophages. delayed hypersensitivity developed in the course of rodentiosis. intensity of delayed skin reactions and degree of migration inhibition of peritoneal macrophages in the presence of specific antigen were strictly correlated.1976769739
immunologic phenomena in experimental rodentiosis. ii. cellular and humoral factors in immunity to infection with yersinia pseudotuberculosis.humoral and cellular mechanisms of immunity to infection with y. pseudotuberculosis bacilli in mice were studied. development of delayed hypersensitivity, measured by the footpad test and macrophage migration inhibition test, was significantly correlated with immunity, expressed by elimination of y. pseudotuberculosis cells from the organs of infected mice. passive transfer of hypersensitivity and immunity was possible only by using peritoneal cells, while specific serum was inactive in this res ...1976769740
