Abstract:
From January 1990 to July 1992 a prospective study on the salmonellosis form of presentation, reservoirs and transmission in Tandil was carried out. Forty strains of Salmonella enterica were isolated with the following distribution: 28 humans (17 children and 11 adults), 6 in foods (1 in raw milk, 3 in well water, 1 in home made mayonnaise and 1 in chicken salad) and 6 in animals (1 in cow, 2 in chicken and 2 in calves). Salmonella Enteritidis was the most frequent isolate. Disease was evident only in a few susceptible hosts and the epidemiological chain could not be determined in all the cases.
