DESCRIPTION OF THE DIFFERENT SPECIES, GROUP D 737 



Salm. rostock A.F. I, IX, XII . . . g, p, u . . . — . 



Isolated from cattle. First differentiated on basis of fermentation reactions (Bahr 

 1930a, b). Antigenic structure studied by Kauffmann (19306, 1931, 1934a, 19356). (See 

 also Stroman and Orn 1932, Hohn and Hermann 1935a). It appears to be relatively 

 uncommon in cattle in Germany (Bartel 1938, Liitje 1939), and has not yet been isolated 

 from human beings. 

 Salm. moscow A.F. IX, XII . . . g, q . . . — . 



Isolated mainly in Russia from febrile infections in man (Weigmann 1925a, b, Iwaschen- 

 zoflf 1926). It has since been isolated from cases of gastro-enteritis in man (Hohn and 

 Herrmann 1935a, Kauffmann 19356), and from a cow and a horse (Kauffmann 19356). 

 Its structure was first determined by Hicks (1930) (see also Kauffmann 19306, 1931, 1934a, 

 19356). The full formula for its flagellar antigen is g, o, q, Zg. It is doubtful whether 

 it can give rise primarily to a typhoid-like disease in man ; most of the Russian strains 

 appear to have been cases of relapsing fever in which Salm. moscow was a secondary 

 invader. Not to be confused with Salm. enteritidis var. essen, which was first described 

 as Salm. moscau (Hohn and Herrmaim 1935a). 

 Salm. blegdam A.F. IX, XII . . . g, m, q . . . — . 



Isolated from the blood of a patient in Denmark suffering from pneumonia ; described 

 by Kauffmann (19356). Does not appear to have been met with again. 

 Salm. pensacola A.F. IX, XII . . . g, m, t . . . — . 



Studied by Edwards (1945). 

 Salm. berta A.F. IX, XII . . . f, g, t . . . — . 



Isolated from the pooled mesenteric lymph nodes of normal pigs in Uruguay and 

 reported to a local society in 1937 ; described by Hormaeche, Peluffo and Salsamendi 

 in 1938. Studied also by Kauffmann (19376). H antigen contains also z, and z^. HjS 

 production irregular. Pathogenic to rats by mouth, and by subcutaneous and intra- 

 peritoneal injection when given in large doses. 

 Salm. eastbourne A.F. [I], IX, XII . . . e, h ^-> 1, 5 . . . 



Isolated from a case of enteric fever (Leslie and Shera 1931). (See also Kauffmann 

 1934a.) Subsequently met with in the United States and in Norway. Bornstein and 

 Saphra (1942) examined a strain that had been isolated from the spinal fluid of a child 

 who died of meningitis. Also found in animals. Some strains are peculiar in producing 

 indole. Inositol fermentation is irregular, and occasional variants fail to form gas. 

 Salm. sendai A.F. [I], IX, XII ... a ^-^ 1, 5 . . . 



Isolated from cases of enteric fever in Japan (Aoki and Sakai 1925). Antigenic struc- 

 ture determined by White (1926) and Kauffmann (1931, 1934a). Since isolated from 

 a patient with a typhoid-like fever in Georgia (Bornstein and Saphra 1942). Closely 

 related to Salm. paratyphi A, from which it differs in containing the ix antigen, in possessing 

 a group phase (which can, however, be artificially induced in Salm. paratyphi A by growth 

 in the presence of immune serum), in fermenting xylose, and in forming little or no gas 

 from dextrose. Resembles Salm. paratyphi A in growing more poorly than most other 

 Salmonella strains. 



Salm. loma-linda A.F. IX, XII ... a < — > e, n, x . . . 

 Salm. onarimon A.F. I, IX, XII . . . b -«-^ 1, 2 . . . 



Isolated from the stools of a healthy woman in Japan. Described by Kisida (1940). 

 Closely resembles Salm. paratyphi B, and like that organism it forms a mucoid wall. Was 

 later isolated by Anzai and Tsurumi (1940) from the blood of a patient with a typhoid- 

 like disease which began with dysenteric symptoms. 

 Salm. dar-es-salaam A.F. I, IX, XII . . . 1, w < — > e, n . . . 



Isolated from the urine of a febrile patient in Dar es Salaam. Antigenic structure 

 determined by White (1926). (See also Kauffmann and Mitsui 1930, Kauffmann 1931, 

 1934o, 1940e). Peculiar in that it liquefies gelatin. Variable in its ability to grow on 

 an ammonium base medium. Full formula of Phase 2 is e, n, z^, z^ . . .
