Prevalence and genetic properties of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium definitive phage type 104 isolated from Rattus norvegicus and Rattus rattus house rats in Yokohama City, Japan

Article Abstract:

The prevalence and genetic properties of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium definitive phage type 104 (DT104) strains among serovar Typhimurium isolates from house rats are investigated by studying antimicrobial resistance, detection of class I integrons and antimicrobial resistance genes. The results have shown that DT104 strains are dominant in house rat colonies in each building and have suggested that house rats might play an important role in the epidemiology of DT104.

An improved enrichment broth for isolation of Escherichia coli O157, with specific reference to starved cells, from radish sprouts

Article Abstract:

Results demonstrate that both starved and unstarved Escherichia coli O157 cells from radish sprouts can be recovered using sodium thioglycolate-buffered peptone water broth medium enrichment protocol.
