“…kunzendorf comprised 67.8% of the total SaZmonella from disease in pigs during 1957-1960. Only one strain was isolated in this study, and this apparent rarity of S. cholerae-suis in healthy pigs has been noted by others (Galton et al 1954;Peluffo 1964).…”

“…Asymptomatic healthy animals carrying and excreting salmonella organisms are more significant and dangerous than clinically sick animals because of their unavoidable influence on food contamination (Clarenbury 1964;Peluffo 1964;Anon 1967). The significance of slaughtered animals, animal products and the environment of the abattoir in the spread of salmonella infection has been emphasised repeatedly (McDonagh and Smith 1958;Galbraith et a1 1961;Harvey et at 1963;Jones et a1 1964;Anon 1964).…”

“…In one girl aged 6 months who had not been examined during her illness, salmonellosis was recognized post mortem and S. enteritidis was isolated from lung tissue taken at autopsy. Other authors (Peluffo, 1964;Saphra & Winter, 1957;Swicowa et at. 1962) have also noted symptoms of acute inflammation of the throat in infants with salmonellosis.…”

During 9 months the author observed 309 cases of infection with Salmonella enteritidis, of which 88% were hospital infections in six childrens' wards of three different hospitals. The foci were connected epidemiologically. In 97·7% of those examined, the bacteria were detected in faeces, in 68% in urine and in 27·5% in the upper respiratory tract. Bacteraemia was found in 17·2%. The bacteria were also detected in two air-samples and in two swabs from linen and furniture. All isolated strains were highly resistant to antibiotics and to drying, but sensitive to the action of chloramine. In infected patients with parenteral localization of bacteria, the agglutination test with specific gm antigen was positive in 80% of cases. Many patients were persistent carriers for 5–10 months. In adults a short faecal carrier state was usually observed. The epidemic spread by contact, though in some cases it was probably air-borne. Such epidemics are very difficult to bring to an end.

The incidence of Salmonella typhimurium in imported bone meal may be underestimated by conventional isolation techniques because of the presence of other salmonella serotypes. A method was developed with a serological bias towards recovery of serotypes with ‘i’as H phase 1 antigen. By this technique, 44 strains of S. typhimurium were isolated from Argentinian bone meal compared with nine strains cultured by the unbiased method. The technique was less successful with Lebanese bone. The serological technique was most effective when several salmonella serotypes not possessing the ‘i’antigen were present in a sample. S. kentucky (8, 20:i:z6), like S. typhimurium was also efficiently isolated by the serological method. In 12 specimens both S. typhimurium and S. kentucky were present. The two serotypes were easily separated by examining four 25 g sub‐samples of the specimen.
