Abstract

|
Eight hundred and nine strains of Salmonella were isolated from febrile patients in Taegu area during the period from May 1974 through November 1976. They consisted of 730 strains of Salmonella typhi and 79 of S. paratyphi A. Salmonellae were isolated throughout the year with more frequent incidences in warm seasons than in cold seasons. It was believed that the major cause of febrile enteric infections is S. typhi in recent years, but the isolation of S. paratyphi A from patients is gradually increasing from the later period of 1974.
Thirty-five strains of miscellaneous organisms including 17 Acinetobacter calcoaceticus were isolated from blood of febrile patients.
The survey on Salmonella carriers during the period from May 1974 through April 1975 resulted in the isolation of 8 strains of Salmonella including two S. typhi from stools of 3,795 food handlers in Taegu city.
