Abstract

Enteropathogenic Yersinia comprises of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. Enteropathogenic Yersinia causes enteric yersiniosis, the third most frequently reported bacterial zoonosis in the EU after Campylobacter and Salmonella (EFSA and ECDC 2011) and foods are considered to be the main transmission route of enteropathogenic Yersinia to humans. The pathogenicity of Yersinia varies from nonpathogenic to highly pathogenic and correct identifi cation and subtyping. Detection of virulence markers are therefore needed to determine clinical signifi cance of isolated strains.
