8E9 specifically reacts with Yersinia enterocolitica serogroup O:9 strains in both agglutination and immunofluorescence assays. The antibody does not react with Y. enterocolitica O:3 and O:8 serogroups.
Yersinia enterocolitica serotype O:3 is a Gram-negative, bacillus-shaped bacterium, belonging to the family Yersiniaceae. It is motile at temperatures of 22-29 degrees celsius, but becomes nonmotile at normal human body temperature. Yersinia enterocolitica is thought to be a significant food-borne pathogen, although pathogenic isolates have seldom been isolated from foods, except from edible pig offal. In case control studies, a correlation has been demonstrated between the consumption of raw or undercooked pork and yersiniosis. Genotypes of Y. enterocolitica strains found in humans, further supporting the association between yersiniosis and consumption of pork.
