[gas-liquid chromatography of non-volatile fatty acid produced by "yersinia enterocolitica" (author's transl)].the metabolic products (non-volatile fatty acids) of 24 strains belonging to four yersinia enterocolitica groups (typical, sucrose negative, rhamnose positive, melibiose and rhamnose positive) were examined by gas liquid chromatography. all strains produced lactic, pyruvic and succinic acids. this technique did not allow any classification for taxonomic purpose. the evolution of lactic and succinic acid production was monitored for 72 h in shaked and non-shaked cultures. the concentration of bot ...1979382950
catabolite inactivation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in spheroplasts from saccharomyces cerevisiae.catabolite inactivation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase was studied in yeast spheroplasts using 0.9 m mannitol or 0.6 m potassium chloride as the osmotic support. in the presence of potassium chloride the rate of catabolite inactivation was nearly the same as that occurring in intact yeast cells under different conditions of incubation. however, in the presence of mannitol, catabolite inactivation in spheroplasts was prevented. the mannitol inhibition of catabolite inactivation was released ...1979383159
[investigation on the presence of salmonella in drinking water from water supplies and distribution systems in togo (author's transl)].bacteriological drinking water examination of samples from water works and wells as well as from their distribution systems revealed that from 26 samples, where salmonella organisms could be isolated, in 16 cases e. coli- and coliforms could not be found and that in 9 of these cases even the colony count was below 100 colonies per ml at 20 degrees c and 37 degrees c incubation temperature. the common reasons for such contaminations are technical deficiencies, mostly faulty well-heads or broken c ...1979384726
efficacy of cold enrichment techniques for recovery of yersinia enterocolitica from human stools.stool specimens from children with gastroenteritis and their household contacts were cultured for yersinia enterocolitica by direct plating onto routine laboratory media. these stools were also inoculated into phosphate-buffered saline and subcultured to the same media after 1 day or 3 weeks of incubation at 4 degrees c. y. enterocolitica was isolated from 174 index cases and 34 household contacts. one hundred eighty-one isolates were of serotype o:3, and the remaining 21 belonged to other serot ...1979387818
serum opsonic activity in rodent malaria: functional and immunochemical characteristics in vitro.the functional and immunochemical characteristics of serum opsonic activity in rodent malaria were examined in the present study. schizont- and late trophozoite-enriched populations of plasmodium berghei-infected red blood cells (irbc) were isolated on a ficoll density-gradient and used in an in vitro phagocytosis system composed of serum and monolayer cultures of rat peritoneal macrophages. hyperimmune serum augmented the phagocytosis of irbc to a greater degree than did nonimmune serum. when e ...1979387873

differentiation of selected enterobacteriaceae by pyrolysis-gas-liquid chromatography.pyrolysis-gas-liquid chromatography was used to differentiate selected species of enterobacteriaceae. individual cultures of salmonella typhi, hafnia alvei, and proteus vulgaris, and 12 strains of yersinia enterocolitica were grown in nutrient broth. after harvest and lyophilization, the bacterial samples were pyrolyzed at 900 degrees c, and their volatile fractions were separated on a 50-m capillary column coated with carbowax 20m. the resulting pyrolysis elution patterns (pyrograms) of the fou ...1979393169
enrichment methods for recovery of yersinia enterocolitica from foods and raw milk.modified rappaport broth used directly and in a two-step procedure with preliminary cold enrichment was evaluated for recovery of yersinia enterocolitica from laboratory-inoculated samples of ground meat, and naturally-occurring strains from raw milk. the use of modified rappaport broth generally improved recovery from both inoculated meats and raw milk, but results were not consistent between serotypes used for inoculation and between meat samples. the overall isolation rate for naturally-occur ...1979394916
testing for the recovery of yersinia enterocolitica in foods and their ability to invade hela cells.tests have demonstrated that current enrichment methods may fail to detect low levels of some clinical strains of yersinia enterocolitica inoculated into meats and oysters and need improvement. the results of cold enrichment with phosphate and tripolyphosphate buffers were very poor and the sensitive clinical strain failed to grow in wauters' mgcl2 broth. twenty typical clinical strains of y. enterocolitica belonging to nilehn's biotypes 2, 3, and 4 had the ability to invade hela cells tissue cu ...1979394917
human gastrointestinal infections by yersinia enterocolitica.in an average-sized peripheral hospital in belgium, y. enterocolitica has been isolated from 1.1% of stool cultures, using an unmodified routine technique. in a group of unselected patients undergoing appendicectomy, 1.3% of patients had a positive culture, either from the mesenteric lymph nodes or the appendix, or from both sources. in the same group of patients, 1.7% of cultures grew a salmonella. in more than half of the patients, the diagnosis of mesenteric adenitis was made during the surgi ...1979394918
the pathogenesis of yersinia enterocolitica gastroenteritis.of nine y. enterocolitica serotypes examined by us, only type 3 was shown to be enteropathogenic. 3 of 16 strains recovered from clinical material, produced a heat-stable toxin similar to that reported in e. coli. a fourth isolate produced histological changes resembling those associated with salmonellae. the mechanism whereby the majority of y. enterocolitica strains produce diarrhoea is uncertain. our isolates may have lost a plasmid essential for enteropathogenicity, or they may resemble the ...1979394919
detection of enterotoxigenic and invasive strains of yersinia enterocolitica.membrane filtrates and heavy cell suspensions of 11 strains of yersinia enterocolitica isolated from a recent epidemic were examined respectively for enterotoxin activity and tissue invasiveness. although no heat-labile enterotoxins were detected, some strains were found to possess heat-stable enterotoxins and to have the ability to penetrate the conjunctival epithelia of guinea pig eyes. these activites were detected only in cultures grown at 25 degrees c and not at 36 degrees c.1979394920
the molecular taxonomy of yersinia enterocolitica.the stretches of yersinia enterocolitica strain ye 62 dna which show base sequence homology with escherichia coli strain b dna were removed from a preparation of tritiated y. enterocolitica dna by dna reassociation techniques. this dna preparation was then used in reassociation reactions with dna from various selected strains of yersinia and coliform bacteria. the results suggest that the bulk of the genes, which are in common between y. enterocolitica and e. coli, are different from those share ...1979394923
evaluation of some cold enrichment and isolation media for the recovery of yersinia enterocolitica.an evaluation of several cold enrichment media for yersinia enterocolitica showed that the enrichment quotient achieved after 3 weeks at 4 degrees c was highly dependent on the initial cell concentration and the medium used. the latter should be of high nutritional value, in order to allow sufficient growth of yersinia enterocolitica at a low temperature. enrichment in typtone--soya broth yielded better results than in--frequently used--phosphate buffer, ph 7.6. while comparing isolation media f ...1979400084
yersinia enterocolitica among small wild mammals in france.a survey of yersinia enterocolitica was made in two french areas (indre and alsace) in several components of the terrestrial ecosystem. y. enterocolitica has been isolated from several habitats and from numerous species of small mammals. the trap line method enabled us to estimate the density of the two abundant small mammal species, microtus arvalis and apodemus sylvaticus, and the densities of y. enterocolitica carriers. the frequency of isolation was high when temperatures were low, but did n ...1979400946
morphologic effects of thio-tepa on mouse urothelium.the urothelial changes induced by intravesical instillation of thio-tepa into experimental animals were studied by cytologic, light microscopic, and electron microscopic techniques. cells and tissue from treated and untreated groups were compared using a total of 54 discriminators. there were few consistent differences. cells with marked nuclear atypia were not identified. the results indicate that thio-tepa has little effect on non-diseased bladders. the atypical cells occasionally present in s ...1977414498
imaging of experimental myocardial contusion: observations and pathologic correlations.myocardial contusions of variable severity were experimentally produced by an air-driven piston or serrated clamp in 29 dogs. two 99mtc-labeled bone-seeking agents (99mtc pyrophosphate and 99mtc tetracycline) were used with cardiac scintigraphy to determine the sensitivity of these agents in detecting different degrees of myocardial damage. results showed that 99mtc tetracycline was not a suitable scanning agent. 99mtc pyrophosphate produced positive scans in cases of complete (or nearly complet ...1977414537
comparative immunological studies on arylsulfatase in bacteria of the family enterobacteriaceae: occurrence of latent arylsulfatase protein regulated by sulfur compounds and tyramine.the arylsulfatases of 21 strains of the family enterobacteriaceae were compared by measuring their enzymatic activities and immunological reactivities. enzyme formation under repressing, nonrepressing, and derepressing conditions was tested. antiserum prepared against pure arylsulfatase from klebsiella aerobgenes w70 was tested against the enzyme extracts from the strains using double diffusion, quantitative precipitation, and immunoelectrophoresis. no close relationship was found between arylsu ...1978415041
[allergic reactions in guinea pigs infected with yersinia enterocolitica type 9 relative to homologous (yersinia) and heterologous (brucella) allergens].obtained were allergens from brucella abortus 99 and yersinia enterocolitica type 9 through hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid after m. m. ivanov and with acetic acid after kirzhaev. they were tested on guinea pigs that were infected with yersinia enterocolitica type 9 through different ways. to m. m. ivanov's allergens all infected animals responded pronouncedly in the case of the homologous allergen, and half of them only and to a lower degree in the case of the heterologous brucella allergen. ...1977415410
respiratory syncytial virus infection in adults: clinical, virologic, and serial pulmonary function studies.we prospectively studied 10 previously healthy adults who developed an acute respiratory illness while working in an infants' ward during a community outbreak of respiratory syncytial virus infection. in addition to clinical and viral evaluation, total respiratory resistance before and after carbachol aerosol inhalation was measured. all 10 subjects had respiratory syncytial virus infection documented by viral isolation, and all developed pronounced cough, nasal congestion, and fever. eight subj ...1978415653
diabetic ketoacidosis with retinal tear.a 59-year-old women with no previous history of diabetes mellitus was admitted in diabetic ketoacidosis. ultrasonic biometry was used to measure axial vitreous length during therapy. vitreous length increased from 14.09 mm shortly after admission to 14.26 mm (p less than 0.05) when the episode of diabetic ketoacidosis cleared. an interesting finding was the presence of a horseshoe-shaped retinal tear after the patient was discharged. severe dehydration with resultant shrinkage of the vitreous co ...1977415655
plasma phencyclidine pharmacokinetics in dog and monkey using a gas chromatography selected ion monitoring assay.phencyclidine was determined by gas chromatography selected ion monitoring in six dogs and seven monkeys. aliquots of venous blood were taken over 4 h in the monkey after 1.1 mg kg-1 and over 24 h in the dog after 1.0 mg kg-1 of phencyclidine i.v. pentadeuterated phencyclidine was used as the internal standard. in the electron impact mode the most abundant fragments in the mass spectrum of phencyclidine were m/e 91 and 200, and 96 and 205 in the [2h5]phencyclidine spectrum. these fragments were ...1978415768
[brucella titers in subclinical infections due to yersinia enterocolitica serotype o:9 in a pig-breeding farm (author's transl)].according to the federal german veterinary public health regulations part of the stock of a pig-breeding farm in lower franconia (south germany) had to be destroyed due to the findings of positive serological titers against brucella. b. suis was not isolated from various specimens examined by the local veterinary public health authorities, but the authors found yersinia enterocolitica serotype o:9 in 15 of 117 pigs investigated (12.8%). the organisms were cultured from 6 out of 117 specimens of ...1978416626
yersinia enterocolitica infections in non-human primates.yersinia enterocolitica was isolated from ten non-human primates in the netherlands. the following species were represented: potto, senegalgalago, wooly monkey, black spider monkey, common marmoset, cottonhead tamarin, pigtailed macaque and lesser whitenosed guenon.1977418633
antibiotic-resistance transfer in yersinia enterocolitica.most clinical isolates of yersinia enterocolitica have been reported to be inhibited by a wide variety of antimicrobial agents. this finding indicates that y. enterocolitica infrequently acquires resistance by gene transfer from other bacteria in nature. in the present study the authors examined whether y. enterocolitica has the potential for acquiring antibiotic resistance from another organism in vitro. mixed cultures of multiple-antibiotic-resistant escherichia coli and a sensitive y. enteroc ...1979420178

comments on the ecology and epidemiology of yersinia enterocolitica in czechoslovakia.on the basis of the information disseminated by the reference laboratory in 1968, the microbiological diagnosis of yersinia enterocolitica (ye) was gradually mastered by all czechoslovak microbiological laboratories. the most frequent serotype isolated in man was ye 03. isolation predominated from cases of diarrhoea, less often from appendectomies, and only one case of septicaemia was described. usually only sporadic cases occur and outbreaks are rare. a few strains of ye 05 were found in diarrh ...1979535370

canadian experience with yersinia enterocolitica (1966--1977).data pertaining to 1,219 cultures of yersinia enterocolitica isolated in canada are summarized. of the 977 cultures isolated from humans, y. enterocolitica serotype 0:3, biotype 4, phage type ixb was the most predominant type in ontario, quebec and the four eastern provinces. in the western provinces the predominant strains were indol-positive, serotypes 0:8; 5,27 and 4,32. most of the 242 cultures of nonhuman origin, except those isolated from swine and a few isolated from wild animals, were in ...1979535372
epidemiological and clinical aspects of human yersinia enterocolitica infections in belgium.in the period from 1963 to 1975 data were collected on 1,781 isolates of y. enterocolitica from human infections in belgium. there was an uneven spread of the cases over the country, but this could simply reflect the distribution and activity of medical laboratories. serotype 3 dominated (89.2%) followed by serotype 9 (8.6%). less than 1% of all isolates were from nonenteral sources. gastroenteritis was the diagnosis in 86.8% of patients, while 10.6% were suffering from an appendicitis-like synd ...1979535373
yersiniosis in california.thirty-three strains of yersinia enterocolitica representing 11 different serotypes were identified from human isolates in california between 1968 and mid-1977. the most frequently encountered serotype, 0:5,27, was identified in 8 cases. twenty-one strains, representing five serotypes, were esculin- and salicin-negative, and were considered to be the primary cause of disease in the majority of these cases. the remaining strains, representing six serotypes, were esculin- and salicin-positive, and ...1979535374
the first isolation of human yersinia enterocolitica in brazil: case report.the isolation of yersinia enterocolitica from humans in brazil has never been described before. the present report describes the isolation of an y. enterocolitica isolate from a patient with clinical symptoms resembling appendicitis. the isolate showed typical sensitivity to the drugs and biochemical tests, with the exception of the motility at 22 degrees c, that was negative. the strain agglutinated with antisera 03 and the patient's serum showed an antibody titer of 1:80 against y. enterocolit ...1979535375

waterborne yersinia enterocolitica in the midwest united states.one hundred forty strains of waterborne y. enterocolitica were isolated from wisconsin and colorado rivers, lakes and wells between october 1974 and march 1976- direct-plating of unconcentrated water specimens on deoxycholate-citrate-mannitol (y-m) agar resulted in 89 isolates. prolonged incubation of specimens in cooked meat broth produced 51 additional strains. most organisms were indole-positive, niléln biotype 1 with 24% belonging to the rhamnophilum subgroup. twenty-three serotypes were rep ...1979535377
the first successful isolation and identification of yersinia enterocolitica in iran.since 1967, more than 2,000 specimens have been examined for the possible existence of yersinia enterocolitica in iran. most of the specimens were stool and appendices. for primary isolation ss and emb media were used and the cultures were incubated at 37 degrees c. in 1976 we isolated the first strain of y. enterocolitica from the stool of a 10-month-old girl. she was suffering from chronic diarrhea. this strain was the first strain of y. enterocolitica to be successfully isolated in iran. it b ...1979535378
isolation of yersinia enterocolitica from swine at an abattoir in sweden.yersinia enterocolitica is presented from a taxonomic point of view. a review about the increased frequencies of isolations of y. enterocolitica from domestic and wild animals in europe is given. recent studies from different countries strongly suggest swine as a source of y. enterocolitica infection to humans. the frequencies of isolation of the o-group i (serotype 3) of this bacteria from swine at a swedish abattoir is presented. the occurrence of positive cases in lots of swine sent to slaugh ...1979535379
carriage of yersinia enterocolitica serotype 3 by pigs as a source of human infection.bacteriological cultures were made from pigs' tongues bought in several belgian butchers' shops, for 3 years in succession. from 302 samples 168 yersinia enterocolitica strains were isolated, all of serotype 3, except three strains belonging to serotype 9. the isolation rate ranged from 53 to 62.5%, depending on the year. the modified rappaport broth supplemented with carbenicillin proved to be highly superior to the cold enrichment method for recovering the organism from this material. it is as ...1979535380
occurrence of yersinia enterocolitica in the throat of swine.yersinia enterocolitica serotype 0 3 was isolated from 84 (30%) of 282 throat swab cultures from bacon pigs at slaughter. other serotypes of y.e. were not isolated. all the isolations were made by the cold-enrichment method. the serum agglutinin titres against serotype 0 3 were low in most of the pigs examined. the rate of isolation of the organism increased with rising serum titre. in denmark, y.e. serotype 0 3 would appear to be a common inhabitant of the throat of swine.1979535381
