Microbiological monitoring of yerseniosis in Yakutia
Abstract
Here, we report results of long-term complex epidemiological and microbiological monitoring of yersinioses in Yakutia. The circulating pathogenic yersinia strains were screened for presence of the major virulence genes. A persistence of human- and rodent- non-pathogenic Y. enterocolitica biotype 1А and Y. kristensenii in the internal organs of the most prevalent rodent species was detected.
