Laboratory Findings
- Gram's stains can confirm the presence of gram-negative rods, and in some cases the identification of the double-curved shape.
- Anti-F1 serology test can differentiate between different species of Yersinia
- Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be used to identify Yersinia pestis
