title: [Stool culture. Evaluation of technics of salmonellosis diagnosis].
abstract: With a view to standardizing diagnostic methods in our country, we have attempted to evaluate the techniques for isolating Salmonella, more particularly S. typhi, by stool culture. The various factors influencing the isolation rate of these organisms are studied, i.e.: the mode of sampling, the components of media for both isolation and enrichment, and subcultures. A scheme for isolation of Salmonella from stools is proposed.
