Full Description
BS PD CEN ISO/TS 18867:2015 specifies two horizontal methods for detection of the pathogenicbioserotypes of
Y. enterocolitica and one for detection of
Y. pseudotuberculosis by using real-time PCRbasedmethods. The described methods allow for the detection of the two pathogens in enrichmentsand allow the isolation of colonies.
Y. pestis, the causative agent of bubonic and pneumonic plagueharbours a variant of the ail gene as well and will be detected by the same primer/probe set as
Y.pseudotuberculosis. However,
Y. pestis is normally not associated with food. This Technical Specificationis applicable to products for human consumption, animal feeding stuffs, and environmental samples.
