Partial purification and characterization of heat-stable enterotoxin produced by Yersinia enterocolitica.
By using a suckling mouse assay, heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) was purified from the culture filtrate of Yersinia enterocolitica isolated from a diarrheal patient. The purification procedures involve ultrafiltration with an Amicon HIP-10 hollow fiber, ethanol fractionation, protamine sulfate treatment, diethylaminoethyl-Sephacel and hydroxylapatite column chromatographies, and Sephacryl S-200 su...
متن کاملAssessment of enterotoxin production by Yersinia enterocolitica and identification of a novel heat-stable enterotoxin produced by a noninvasive Y. enterocolitica strain isolated from clinical material.
Twenty-eight clinical isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica were investigated for their abilities to produce heat-stable enterotoxin (YST). All 21 invasive strains (serogroup O3 biotype 4) carried the previously described gene for YST (yst), with toxin detectable in culture supernatants from 20 strains. One of seven noninvasive, biotype 1A strains also had enterotoxic activity, despite failure to...
متن کاملDetection of Yersinia enterocolitica heat-stable enterotoxin by suckling mouse bioassay.
A comparison of heat-stable enterotoxins from Escherichia coli and Yersinia enterocolitica by the suckling mouse bioassay showed that whereas E. coli heat-stable enterotoxin evoked a maximum ratio of gut weight to remaining body weight after a 4-h incubation period, the maximum ratio for Y. enterocolitica was achieved at 2 h, decreasing thereafter to values regarded as negative (less than 0.083...
متن کاملFactors affecting detection of Yersinia enterocolitica heat-stable enterotoxin by the infant mouse test.
With regard to the assay of heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) from Yersinia enterocolitica, we made a comparative study of the conventional infant mouse test read at 4 h and a modified infant mouse test read at 2 h. The influence of several factors, such as the medium used to prepare ST, lysing of bacterial cells from the broth cultures used to prepare ST, and the temperature at which the inoculated...
متن کاملproduction and purfication of heat-stable (st) enterotoxin of yersinia enterocolitica
since the heat-stable enterotoxin (st) produced by yersinia enterocolitica is similar to enterotoxin production by e. coli, it is probably classified among toxinogenic bacteria. the culture filtrate of st-producing strains of y. enterocolitica is able to activate guanylate cyclase and to increase fluid accumulation action of cylic guanosin 3', 5' - monophosphate (cgmp) in sucking mous...
