• Suggestibility

  Whole genome MLST strongly suggest that highly clonal populations of C. jejuni can survive in adverse environmental conditions, even after cleaning and disinfection, and persist for longer periods than previous thought (at least 21 days) in the poultry [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  ABSTRACT Previous studies of Campylobacter jejuni have suggested that flagellin is an adhesin for epithelial cells and that motility is a virulence factor of this bacterium. [iai.asm.org]

  The IPSID cases originated from a very wide range of geographical locations suggesting that the association with C.jejuni was disease specific rather than environmental. [bloodjournal.org]
