Further Studies on the Occurrence and Distribution of Salmonella Types in the United States

Bacteriophage Typing of Enteric Pathogens and Staphylococci and its Use in Epidemiology: A Review

“…On the American continent S. montevideo and S. oranienburg are relatively common and are important contaminants of spray-dried egg (see M.R.C. Special Report, 1947;Edwards, Bruner, and Moran, 1948). They have caused a number of outbreaks of food poisoning and might repay attempts at subdivision into phage types.…”

Public Health Significance of Salmonella Carriers in Livestock and Birds

“…Fowls are said to be the greatest reservoir of salmonellae both in the United Kingdom (Buxton, 1957(Buxton, , 1958Gordon, 1959;Garside, Gordon & Tucker, 1960) and in the United States (Edwards, Bruner & Moran, 1948); these authors also claim that a high incidence of a particular serotype in a given locality is accompanied by a high incidence of the same type in man in that area. Dixon & Pooley (1961) studied the incidence of salmonellae in a poultry processing plant where there is likely to be far more spread of contamination than in the retail sale in butchers' shops of poultry killed on the farm.…”

Smoked Fish as a Vehicle of Salmonellosis

“…In studying 310 cultures of S. newport during the period 1934-47, Edwards, Bruner, and Moran (3) found that 220 cultures were isolated from cases of gasteroenteritis. Thanks to the cooperation of many physicians treating the victims, fecal specimens could be examined.…”
