Prevalence, Genetic Homogeneity, and Antibiotic Resistance of Pathogenic <i>Yersinia enterocolitica</i> Strains Isolated from Slaughtered Pigs in Bulgaria

Yersiniosis is the third most commonly reported foodborne zoonosis in the European Union. Here, we evaluated the prevalence of pathogenic <i>Yersinia enterocolitica</i> among healthy pigs (as a major reservoir) in a slaughterhouse in Bulgaria. A total of 790 tonsils and feces from 601 pi...
