| Abstract: | For 13 strains of Yersinia enterocolitica, there was a good correlation between the production of the broad-spectrum, mannose-resistant Yersinia haemagglutinin (MR/Y HA), the presence of fimbriae and high surface hydrophobicity. Each of these characters was expressed in cultures grown at low (less than 32 degrees C) but not at high (Greater than 35 degrees C) temperatures. |
