To diagnose intestinal yersiniosis, the detection of antigen-binding lymphocytes (ABL) with respect to Y. enterocolitica O3, O5 and O9 is proposed. Experiments on the immunization of rabbits with Y. enterocolitica LPS of these serovars revealed that immunoreagents, according to the data of cross antigen-dependent rosette formation and its inhibition ...

Increasing weaning age of piglets from 4 to 7 weeks reduces stress, increases post-weaning feed intake but does not improve intestinal functionality [PDF]
This study tested the hypothesis that late weaning and the availability of creep feed during the suckling period compared with early weaning, improves feed intake, decreases stress and improves the integrity of the intestinal tract.

Intestinal dysbacteriosis was found in all 37 patients with intestinal yersiniosis or pseudotuberculosis. Administration of biopreparations containing lacto- or bifidobacteria produced a good clinico-microbiological response rate (above 90%). The authors think it valid to include biopreparations in combined treatment of yersiniosis to prevent ...
