Antigenic Relationships Among Type Strains of Yersinia enterocolitica and Those of Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., and Shigella spp

Abstract The antigenic type strains for Yersinia enterocolitica antigens O:1 to O:34 were examined and their antigenic relationships with the type strains of Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., and Salmonella spp. were determined. Y. enterocolitica O:5,27 was antigenically identical to E. coli O97 and Y. enterocolitica O:11 was antigenically identical to E. coli O98.
