Yersinia enterocolitica/pseudotuberculosis
Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis are zoonotic bacterial pathogens that can cause yersiniosis — a gastrointestinal infection characterized by diarrhea, abdominal pain, and sometimes systemic symptoms that mimic appendicitis. These bacteria are transmitted through contaminated food or water, and rapid detection is essential for outbreak control and clinical diagnosis.
Yersinia PCR kits based on real-time PCR technology provide a sensitive and specific method for detecting Y. enterocolitica and Y. pseudotuberculosis DNA in human samples. These molecular testing tools deliver accurate and reproducible results in routine and specialized laboratory workflows. Available in research use only (RUO) format, this PCR assay supports a range of applications including gastrointestinal infection diagnostics, foodborne outbreak investigations, and enteric pathogen research from clinical samples.
