Yersinia
01/24/15
18 hours incubation on
MacConkey Agar at 37C
Yersinia
Low
Able to grow at 4C
Some biochemical characteristics are temperature
dependent
expose at 28-30C but not at 37C
temperature pathogen
Yersinia is psychrotroph.
So, may continue to grow under refrigeration

Yersiniosis
Infectious disease caused by
Yersinia
Only Y. enterocolitica and Y.
pseudotuberculosis cause
gastroenteritis
Symptoms;
Gastroenteritis
Abdominal pain, diarrhea (often
bloody) , vomiting, fever
In older children and adults,
right-sided abdominal pain
(pseudo-appendicitis)

Yersiniosis
Antibody (T-cell)
HLA-B27
antigen
Host cell
Cross react
VS
Bacterial antigen
Can occur with people who has human lymphocyte antigen B27
(HLA-B27) the antigen exposed on the host cell
Thought to be caused by T-cells and/or antibodies
elicited by antigens that cross-react with host antigens, not by
infection of the joints
common in people with histocompatibility antigen HLA-B27
(exposed on surface of host cells)
antibodies vs. bacterial surface antigens cross-react with human
B27, activate C'
T-cells recognizing B27 may attack host cells
