Abstract

The biological properties of Salmonella strains isolated from different sources (human beings, farm animals, foodstuffs, and environmental objects) in 2009-2010 were studied. S. enteritidis strains isolated from outbreaks and sporadic cases of salmonellosis were phagotyped and determined for drug resistance. Twelve phagovars of S. enteritidis were ascertained to circulate in the country; moreover, one (60.4%) phagovar was leading. The vast majority of Salmonella were susceptible to the test agents or resistant to one antibiotic. Polyresistant Salmonella strains were encountered more frequently among S. typhimurium and more rarely among S. enteritidis. S. infantis was intermediate.
