Yersinia enterocolitica serotype O:8 septicemia in an otherwise healthy adult: analysis of chromosome DNA pattern by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.

RESUMO
We report the first case of blood culture-positive Yersinia enterocolitica serotype O:8 septicemia in Japan. Y. enterocolitica serotype O:8 infection is very rare, but chromosomal DNA analysis suggested that this bacterium may persist latently in healthy carriers throughout Japan.
