Salmonella and shigella isolated from patients in Taegu area during the period between September of 1961 and January of 1963 were studied.
Among 219 strains of salmonella, 208 were S. typhi and the rest was S. Paratyphi A. No other serotypes was observed. Among 43 strains of shigella, 38 strains were classified as B group. Strains belonging to A, C or D groups were found to be only one or two in number. Out of 38 strains belonging to B group, 18 strains were classified as Sh. flexneri 2a. The next predominant serotypes within B group was Sh. flexneri 3a. and followed in decreasing order by la, 4a and 2b.
Most of the salmonella were sensitive to dihydrostreptomycin, chloramlphenicol, terramycin, or kanamycin, and resistant against aureomycin, achromycin or erythromycin. Almost one-half of the shigella strains isolated was. sensitive to the antibiotics tested. ´iJultiple antibiotic resistant strains were also frequently found in salmonella and. shigella; Strains resistant to three or four antibiotics were predominant among salmonella, and strains resistant to 6 antibiotics were most predominant among shigella.
Salmonella and shigella were frequently isolated during summer and autumn.
