Abstract
|
|
|
One hundred and forty-three rats were caught in Taegu area in April, 1973, and /the carriage of Salmonella was studied with the following results.
Eight strains of Salmonella typhiniurium° were isolated from liver, intestine and/or feces of six rats with the isolation rate of 4.2%. Four -strains were isolated by enrichment in selenite F broth, two in Gram-Negative broth and one in SS broth. Only one strain was isolated by direct culture on SS agar but non on MacConkey agar.
These findings suggest that the combined enrichment in selenite F and GN broths results in the increase of isolation rate. The importance of S. typhimurium in rats for the incidence of food poisoning in man was discussed.
