Isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica and related species from the faeces of cows

Abstract
A total of 203 samples of faeces from 124 cows was examined for the presence of Yersinia enterocolitica and related species by a variety of isolation procedures. Cold enrichment at 5°C for three weeks, followed by plating on cefsulodin‐irgasannovobiocin agar yielded Yersinia species most frequently. Yersinia enterocolitica or related species were isolated from 50% of the cows.
