    Journal: Avian Dis; 1991; 35(1):228-30. PubMed ID: 2029255.
    Abstract:
    The litter of six turkey hen flocks was sampled using the drag-swab technique to determine the effectiveness of this method in detecting Salmonella arizona. Two flocks with the lowest biosecurity standards were found to have S. arizona. Results showed that the drag-swab technique can provide a sensitive and cost-effective measure of S. arizona infection within a flock.
