title: Investigation of zoonotically acquired Campylobacter jejuni enteritis with serotyping and restriction endonuclease DNA analysis.
abstract: Five strains of Campylobacter jejuni were isolated from asymptomatic coyotes being maintained in a vivarium. According to the results of serotyping with thermostable antigens and of bacterial chromosomal restriction endonuclease analysis, one of the C. jejuni strains isolated from the coyotes was responsible for enteritis in a laboratory animal technician providing husbandry for the laboratory-maintained coyotes.
