Abstract
The AA. report data about a research carried out in the province of Li vorno (Italy) regarding the presence of Yersinia in different kinds of foodstuff. 488 samples have been esamined and 13 strains belonging to the genus Yersinia have been recorded. Meat samples appeared to be th e most contamined ones. The results carried out by this research sugge st the importance of a prevailing control on ready to use and fresh pr oducts. In addition the research shows that the ''microbiological indi cators'' don't fit for revealing the psicrophylic pathogens like Yersi nia.
