The epidemiology of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infections in a limited area of Shimane Prefecture, Japan, was examined by serotyping and restriction endonuclease analysis of virulence plasmid DNA of Y. pseudotuberculosis strains isolated from humans, wildlife animals and river water. Almost all isolates from three sources belonged to serotype 1b REAP pattern D and serotype 4b REAP patterns B, G and L. The identity of the distribution of serotype and REAP patterns among isolates from humans, wildlife animals and river water shows that Y. pseudotuberculosis is transmitted to humans through environmental substances contaminated by wildlife animals infected with this species.
通过对从人类、野生动物和河水中分离出的假结核耶尔森菌菌株的毒力质粒DNA进行血清分型和限制性内切酶分析，对日本岛根县一个有限区域内的假结核耶尔森菌感染的流行病学进行了研究。来自这三个来源的几乎所有分离株都属于血清型1b REAP模式D和血清型4b REAP模式B、G和L。在人类、野生动物和河水中分离株之间血清型和REAP模式分布的一致性表明，假结核耶尔森菌是通过被感染该物种野生动物污染的环境物质传播给人类的。
