    Journal: J Commun Dis; 2000 Dec; 32(4):313-5. PubMed ID: 11668944.
    Abstract:
    A total of 565 samples of acute diarrhoeal stools from children received over a period of twelve months from November 1996 to October 1997, yielded 289 (51.15%) isolates of V. cholerae. Out of these, 277 (95.85%) were V. cholerae 01 serotype Ogawa, 7 (2.42%) were V. cholerae 0139 and 5 (1.73%) were V. cholerae non-O1 non-0139. Phage typing of the isolates was carried out by NICED Calcutta. Out of 78 isolates, 69 (88.46%) belong to phage type T27. Of the remaining, 3 (3.85%), 3(3.85%), 2(2.56%) and 1(1.28%) belong to the phage types T26, T13, T8 and T4 respectively.
