| laboratory investigation of virulence among strains of yersinia enterocolitica and related species isolated from pigs and pork products. | eighty strains of yersinia enterocolitica and related species isolated from slaughtered pigs and pork products were tested for possession of virulence-associated phenotypes by employing 12 in vivo and in vitro assays. the isolates could be broadly divided into two groups: (i) strains belonging to pathogenic bioserotypes of y. enterocolitica that displayed virulence-associated characteristics in most or all assays and (ii) strains belonging to y. enterocolitica biotype 1a and to related species t ... | 1992 | 1521193 |

| family outbreak of yersiniosis. | yersinia enterocolitica biotype 1, serotype o:21 was isolated from feces or rectal washings of three members of one family in northwestern saskatchewan. the three isolates gave positive pathogenicity tests in guinea pigs with cultures grown at 22 degrees c as inoculum. all three cases showed clinical symptoms consistent with yersiniosis. all three cases had symptoms of diarrhea and abdominal pain, and two cases had recorded fever. in two cases, appendicitis was initially suspect. one case with i ... | 1982 | 7153310 |
| a serological survey of rural dogs and cats on the southwestern canadian prairie for zoonotic pathogens. | a survey for antibodies against agents of plague, tularemia, and rocky mountain spotted fever (rmsf), and against sin nombre hantavirus (snv), bartonella henselae and b. clarridgeiae was conducted in the summer of 1995 using serum from rural dogs and cats living in the vicinity of four public parks in southeastern alberta and southwestern saskatchewan. antibodies to all pathogens were detected in all survey areas. overall prevalence rates were 0.075 for yersinia pestis, 0.089 for francisella tul ... | 2001 | 11257996 |
| tularemia, plague, yersiniosis, and tyzzer's disease in wild rodents and lagomorphs in canada: a review. | information related to infection of wild rodents or lagomorphs in canada by francisella tularensis, yersinia pestis, other yersinia spp., and clostridium piliforme was searched for this study. reports on tularemia in humans linked to these species came from diagnostic databases, literature, wildlife health specialists, and public health agencies. tularemia has been diagnosed in 8 species of wild rodent and 2 species in the genus lepus in canada. tularemia occurred in wild animals, or in humans a ... | 2009 | 20190973 |
