  • Title: [Occurrence of salmonella enteritis in humans].
    Author: Kühn H.
    Journal: Dtsch Tierarztl Wochenschr; 1993 Jul; 100(7):255-8. PubMed ID: 8375317.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes results of the epidemiological analysis of the occurrence of Enteritis-Salmonellae in Germany. The incidence rate 1980-1992 of both parts of Germany is compared with the rates 1988-1992 in the several counties. The described percent distribution in the age groups and the age specific incidence allow important epidemiological advice. On the strength of longtime-surveillance of Salmonella infections it is possible to recognize the epidemiological significance of specified Salmonella serovars, e.g. S. typhimurium and S. enteritidis. Dominating serovars need a complex typing by means of biochemotyping, phage typing and molecular biological methods. From the epidemiological point of view it is remarkable that only approximately 10% of the Salmonella infections appear in salmonella outbreaks.
