[Selection of methods of detecting lactose-fermenting Salmonella strains and evaluating their usefulness for diagnostic studies]
Medycyna doswiadczalna i mikrobiologia 1989;
41(
2):.
Salmonella rods of subspecies I, lactose-fermenting were first isolated in Poland in 1980. They were isolated from a plus sample taken from a brain abscess of a child. Next strains were isolated from faeces of newborn and hospitalized children. Growth characteristic of colonies of lactose-fermenting Salmonella strains on selective-differentiating media (Mac Conkey's Levine, SS, Soltys) recommended for inoculation of clinical material resembled Escherichia coli. So far these type of colonies were omitted in diagnostic examinations. Lactose-fermenting variants showed on Bismuth sulfate agar "Difco" (WB) typical for Salmonella growth pattern. They grew on this medium after 48 hr of incubation in a form of black, medium sized colonies, with some metallic brilliance and characteristic blackening of the medium undercolonies. Precise knowledge of biochemical properties of lactose-fermenting Salmonella allows to supplement so far used diagnostic scheme with additional tests permitting differentiation of lactose-fermenting variants of Salmonella from the other members of Enterobacteriaceae family. Taking into consideration biochemical variants in diagnostic procedure i.e. lactose-fermenting Salmonella, allowedns to isolate in the years 1983-1985 lactose-positive strains in 1305 out of 2773 (47%) individuals positive for S. agona. In 1987, 246 persons (28.3%) out of 869 with lactose-fermenting Salmonella of various serotypes were simultaneously infected with lactose-negative variant. Lactose-fermenting strains of Salmonella belonged most frequently to the following genera: S. agona, S. enteritidis, S. oranienburg, S. typhimurium, and S. goldcoast. It was found that the modified diagnostic procedure makes possible the isolation and the identification of lactose-positive varians of Salmonella.
