“…The isolation of a strain of Y. frederiksenii carrying the 0:16 antigen, strain 1488Y, may be more significant in this respect as this serogroup has also been reported to cross-react serologically with Brucella (Nielsen, Ruckerbauer & Samagh, 1981).…”

SUMMARYThe properties of 48 cultures identified asYersiniaenterocoliticaorY. enterocoliticalike organisms, includingY. frederiksenii,Y. intermediaandY. kristensenii, were examined. Of these, 39 were isolated from flieces of apparently healthy pigs, five from healthy cattle, one from an aborted bovine fetus, one from an aborted lamb and one from a lamb suffering from acute enteritis.Most isolates from healthy animals were ofY. enterocoliticabiotype 1 orY. intermediaand belonged to O serogroups not usually associated with disease in man or animals.The isolates from abortion or enteritis cases were ofY. enterocoliticabiotypes 3, 4 and 5 and belonged to the pathogenic serogroups 0:5b and 0:2a, 2b, 3. No organisms of serogroup 0:9 were found.

SUMMARY The lymphocyte transformation test (using an in vitro whole-blood lymphocyte stimulation procedure) and the Brucellin skin test were applied to five heifers infected with virulent Brucella abortus strain 544, five cows inoculated with Yersinia enterocolitica serotype 09, and four non-exposed cows. Lymphocytes from Brucella-inoculated animals persistently gave very high blastogenic reactions indicative of active Brucella infection. The test was persistently negative in Yersinia-infected and non-exposed cattle. Four of the five cowsinfected with Yersinia enterocolitica type 09 and all four control cattle were persistently negative to th delayed hypersensitivity skin reaction with brucellin. All cattle infected with Yersinia enterocolitica type 09 were strongly positive to the Rose Bengal, Serum agglutination, Complement fixation and Antibovine globulin tests using Brucella abortus antigens. One lactating cow infected with Yersinia enterocolitica type 09 was positive to Brucella milk ring test. These results indicate that standard Brucella serological tests are unreliable in differentiating the two infections in cattle and that both the Lymphocyte transformation and brucellin skin tests could be used to differentiate bovine brucellosis from yersiniosis.
