Journal Article
An investigative study on Yersinia enterocolitica in animals, humans and dried milk in New Valley Governorate, Egypt
2024
Overview
Background
Yersiniosis is one of the most significant intestinal disorders caused by
Yersinia enterocolitica
and affects both humans and animals. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of
Y. enterocolitica
in New Valley Governorate, Egypt in animals, humans, fresh milk and dried milk. Additionally, this study analyzed the presence of virulence genes, including
ail
and
Yst in
tested isolates and conducted a phylogenetic analysis to determine the genetic similarity between human, and animal
Y. enterocolitica
isolates. Finally, the antimicrobial resistance patterns of the isolates were examined.
Results
Among the 982 samples examined, the prevalence of
Y. enterocolitica
based on ISO10273-2017 was 11.7% in animal samples including 12.8% of animal faeces, and 10.4% in milk samples. Moreover, the prevalence of
Y. enterocolitica
was 13.2% in human stool, and 9.5% in dried milk samples. The molecular characterization of the six randomly selected isolates showed that the
16S rRNA, ail
and
Yst
genes were found in 50, 33.3 and 100% of the examined
Y. enterocolitica
isolates
,
respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of animal and human isolates based on the
16S rRNA
gene revealed a high degree of similarity between the isolates. All the tested animal and human
Y. enterocolitica
isolates (100%) were resistant to ampicillin and cefotaxime, but highly sensitive to norfloxacin.
Conclusions
The high prevalence of
Y. enterocolitica
in animal and human samples with high degrees of genetic similarity poses a threat to public and animal health. Animal faeces, milk and milk powder represent the main sources of
Y. enterocolitica
infection in humans. Additionally, high levels of antibiotic resistance of
Y. enterocolitica
can cause public health hazards by leading to the failure of disease prevention and treatment programs in humans and animals.
