Resumo

Thirty-seven (16.9%) of 219 raw milk samples and 38 (13.7%) of 280 pasteurized milk samples were positive for Yersinia sp. The isolates from raw milk samples include Yersinia enterocolitica (32.4%) comprising biotype 1 (0:5, 10.8%), and biotype 2 (0:10 K1, 1.6%); Yersinia intermedia (64.9%) comprising 0:18 (40.5%), 0:7,8 (8.1%), 0:16 (2,7%) and non-typable (13.5%) and Yersinia frederiksenii (0:22, 2.7%). The isolates from pasteurized milk samples include Y. enterocolitica (41.5%) comprising 0:5 (31.7%), 0:13 (2.4%), 0:7,8 (2.4%) and 0:16 (4.8%); Y. frederiksenii (56.1%) comprising 0:27 (7.3%), 0:25,35 (12.2%), non-typable (36.6%) and Y. intermedia (non-typable, 2.4%). Most Y. enterocolitica and about one third of non- Y. enterocolitica strains produce heat-stable toxin (ST). Antibiotic susceptibility, autoagglutination capacity and calcium-dependency of strains also were investigated.
