The prevalence of Yersinia enterocolitica (Y. enterocolitica) and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis was examined in 151 pet animals including 108 rodents, 39 rabbits and four sugar gliders from 13 pet stores in the Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan. Y. enterocolitica serogroup O:3 biotype 3 negative for the Voges-Proskauer reaction (O:3/3 variant VP-) was isolated from five Djungarian hamsters (Phodopus sungorus) raised at the same pet store. These pathogenic Y. enterocolitica isolates carried the virulence genes, yadA, ail and virF, and were shown to be clonal by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with NotI digestion. This is a first report of pathogenic Y. enterocolitica O:3/3 variant VP- in pet Djungarian hamsters in Japan.
对来自日本山口县13家宠物店的151只宠物进行了小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌(小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌)和假结核耶尔森菌的患病率调查,其中包括108只啮齿动物、39只兔子和4只蜜袋鼯。从同一家宠物店饲养的5只黑线毛足鼠(Phodopus sungorus)中分离出小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌O:3生物型3,Voges-Proskauer反应阴性(O:3/3变异体VP-)。这些致病性小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌分离株携带毒力基因yadA、ail和virF,并通过NotI消化的脉冲场凝胶电泳显示为克隆性。这是日本宠物黑线毛足鼠中致病性小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌O:3/3变异体VP-的首次报道。
