Characteristics of the disease Infectious dose is 10–100 organisms Incubation period is 1⁄2–4 (usually 1–3) days; up to a week for S. dysenteriae 1 Illness: diarrhea with fever and nausea; sometimes toxemia, vomiting, cramps, and tenesmus; dysentery—blood and mucus in stools; may cause hemolytic uremic syndrome; most severe in infants; mild and asymptomatic infections occur Duration: 4–7 days; ...
متن کاملPCR-based characterization of Yersinia enterocolitica: comparison with biotyping and serotyping.
PCR-based DNA fingerprinting was used to characterize 48 clinical isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica. The samples were examined by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR) and inter-repeat PCR (IR-PCR). IR-PCR with two enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus primers resulted in patterns which were poorly discriminated; 2 of 11 arbitrary primers (RAPD-PCR) provided sufficient discrim...
متن کامل[Yersinia enterocolitica tonsillitis].
We present five cases of tonsillitis secondary to Yersinia enterocolitica. No response to commonly-used antibiotics and continuous professional contact with pigs were common. The definitive diagnosis was established by bacteriological isolation on tonsil tissue samples.

swabs, ultrasonography, and diagnostic lavage. Others, more suitable for chronic cases, can realistically be undertaken only in a referral centre; these include smears, mucosal biopsy, estimation of the ciliary beat frequency, and sinoscopy. With the possible exception of endoscopy none of these techniques is totally reliable.45 In this issue, van Duijn and colleagues (p 684)6 have investigated...
متن کاملPathogenic properties of Yersinia enterocolitica.
A total of 88 isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica was examined for heat-stable enterotoxin production and ability to penetrate HeLa cells and evoke keratoconjunctivitis in guinea pigs (Séreny test) as potential pathogenic properties. All 49 isolates belonging to serotypes O:3, O:8, O:9, and O:5,27 and only 5 of 39 strains of other serotypes were HeLa positive. Séreny-positive strains were found...
