    The authors describe one of the modifications of the method for the preparation of rabbit sera hyperimmune to Y. enterocolitica by intracutaneous injections (into 5 sites of the back) of the antigen with Freund's adjuvant, followed by intravenous revaccinations. The antigen for immunization has been prepared by heating Yersinia suspension (1.10(6) bacterial cells per ml) in boiling water bath for 2 hrs. The course of a rabbit immunization takes approximately 3.10(6) bacterial cells. Antibody titers in the prepared sera have been 1:10240-1:20480; the sera have been highly specific.

    Improved Differential Isolation of Yersinia Species Using a Modified Cefsulodin-Irgasan-Novobiocin Agar

    Begin with cultures of Gram-negative Yersinia species and non-Yersinia Enterobacteriaceae.Using sterile needle inoculators, dot the cultures onto both traditional Cefsulodin-Irgasan-Novobiocin or CIN agar and modified CIN agar.Incubate the plates to promote bacterial growth.Both traditional and modified CIN agars support the growth of Yersinia and non-Yersinia Enterobacteriaceae that ferment mannitol to produce acidic byproducts.Acid production lowers the pH and triggers a color change,...

    Quantifying Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Type III Secretion System Activity Following Iron Starvation and Anaerobic Growth

    Bacteria colonize host tissues that vary in oxygen and iron bioavailability, yet most approaches to studying bacteria use aerated, rich media. This protocol describes culturing the human pathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis under varying iron concentrations and oxygen tension, and quantifying activity of the Yersinia type III secretion system, which is an important virulence factor.

    Multi-locus Variable-number Tandem-repeat Analysis of the Fish-pathogenic Bacterium Yersinia ruckeri by Multiplex PCR and Capillary Electrophoresis

    The Multi-Locus Variable-number tandem-repeat Analysis (MLVA) assay presented here enables inexpensive, robust and portable high-resolution genotyping of the fish-pathogenic bacterium Yersinia ruckeri. Starting from pure cultures, the assay employs multiplex PCR and capillary electrophoresis to produce ten-loci MLVA profiles for downstream...

    Measuring Influenza Neutralizing Antibody Responses to A(H3N2) Viruses in Human Sera by Microneutralization Assays Using MDCK-SIAT1 Cells

    Influenza neutralizing antibodies correlate with protection of influenza infections. Microneutralization assays measure neutralizing antibodies in human sera and are often used for influenza human serology. We describe a microneutralization assay using MDCK-SIAT1 cells to measure neutralizing antibody titers to contemporary 3C.2a and 3C.3a A(H3N2) viruses following influenza vaccination or...

    Analysis of Yersinia enterocolitica Effector Translocation into Host Cells Using Beta-lactamase Effector Fusions

    Effector translocation into host cells via a type III secretion system is a common virulence strategy among gram-negative bacteria. A beta-lactamase effector fusion based assay for quantitative analysis of translocation was applied. In Yersinia infected cells, conversion of a FRET reporter by the beta-lactamase is monitored using laser scanning...
