【 摘 要 】

References(6)Cited-By(2)Salmonella Typhimurium was isolated from a fresh fecal sample of zebra finches (Poephila guttata) in December 1992 on an aviary where a large scale outbreak of S. Typhimurium infection among bengalees (a variety of Lonchura striata) in 1991 had been recorded. The isolates from zebra finches were examined for antibiotic sensitivity and plasmids, which were 60 Mdal, then they showed the same pattern as those of S. Typhimurium isolated at the previous outbreak. This is the first report of S. Typhimurium isolation from zebra finches.
