Twenty-five bacterial genera were cultured from bats, including 2 known human-pathogenic Yersinia spp., i.e., Y. pseudotuberculosis and Y. enterocolitica
Based on results of an agglutination test (Denka Seiken), the isolate was characterized as Y. enterocolitica serotype O:6, biovar 1A
Summary
Orlando Costa Ferreira Jr., Davis Fernandes Ferreira, Dirce Bonfim Lima, Flavia Barreto Santos, Hermann Gonçalves Schatzmayr, Amilcar Tanuri, and Rita Maria Ribeiro Nogueira. An outbreak of dengue virus at Rio de Janeiro-1986. Scientific interest in chiropteran species has markedly increased because bats are known hosts to zoonotic agents, such as henipaviruses, Ebola virus, and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)–like corona viruses [1,2]. We conducted a broad study during 2006–2008 on diseases and causes of death in bats among 16 species found in Germany.
