    Author: Hurvell B, Glatthard V, Thal E.
    Journal: Contrib Microbiol Immunol; 1979; 5():243-8. PubMed ID: 535379.
    Abstract:
    Yersinia enterocolitica is presented from a taxonomic point of view. A review about the increased frequencies of isolations of Y. enterocolitica from domestic and wild animals in Europe is given. Recent studies from different countries strongly suggest swine as a source of Y. enterocolitica infection to humans. The frequencies of isolation of the O-group I (serotype 3) of this bacteria from swine at a Swedish abattoir is presented. The occurrence of positive cases in lots of swine sent to slaughter from different herds range from 0.6 to 8.0%.
