  • Title: [Bacteriocinogeny in Yersinia enterocolitica].
    Author: Martinevskiĭ IL, Vishniakov AK.
    Journal: Antibiotiki; 1975 Feb; 20(2):128-32. PubMed ID: 1091204.
    Abstract:
    Bacteriocinogeny was found in 19.8 per cent of Y. enterocolitica strains tested. It was designated by the authors as enterocoliticacinogeny and the substance produced by the pathogen was named enterocoliticacine. Bacteriocinogeny was found among the collection strains isolated in the South Primorye and not among the strains isolated abroad. Some cultures of Y. enterocolitica isolated abroad and in the South Primorye were used as indicator strains for revealing enterocoliticacinogeny. Enterocoliticacine inhibited growth only of some strains of Y. enterocolitica and had no inhibitory effect on growth of Coli bacteria, plague and pseudotuberculosis microbes. The latter 3 bacterial species did not inhibit growth of the causative agent of gastric yearsiniosis, which may be of some diagnostic importance. The diverse spectrum of enterocoliticacine and the character of inhibition of sensitive culture growth are indicative of the presence of several types of bacteriocines in Y. enterocolitica.
