Abstract
|
|
|
44 strains of shigellae were isolated from 385 samples of suspected feces in Taegu area in 1961. Shigella strains were most frequently isolated in June and July.
The isolated strains were classified as follows :
Shigella dysenteriae 1 ……… 2 strains
2 ……… 1
3 ……… 1
Sh. flexneri 1b ……… 1
2a ……… 13
3a ……… 4
4a ……… 11
4b ……… 5
5 ……… 2
Sh. boydii 1 ……… 1
Sh. sonnei ……… 3
antibiotic sensitivity tests showed that steains sensitive to erythromycin were most predominant (30 strains) and the number decreased in order of chloremycetin (20), terraycin (16), streptomycin (14), penicillin (9) and aureomycin(2).
Most strains were resistant to two or more drugs with most predominant numbers against 4 drugs (12).
Comparative studies of tube dilution method and plate method for antibiotic sensitivity test were carried out with isolated shigella strains and found that the plate method was more sensitive that the tube method against penicillin, streptomycin and cholromycin, and the tube method was more sensitive showed paralleled results against aureomycin and terramycin.
