[Investigation of the incidence of Salmonella in the Faeces, mesenteric lymph glands, and intestinal wall (Peyer's patches) of normal pig carcases (author's transl)].
The faeces, mesenteric lymph glands, and intestinal wall (Peyer's patches) of two hundred clinically normal pig carcases were examined. Of these, 115 (57.5%) were found to infected with Salmonella in the following combinations: lymph glands only, 6; intestines only, 14; faeces only, 13; lymph glands + intestines, 7; lymph glands + faeces, 11; intestines + faeces, 20; lymph glands + intestines + faeces, 44. The supposition that Salmonella can be detected in the lymphoid tissue of the intestine (Peyer's patches) far more frequently than in the faeces was not confirmed. The presumably still rising number of clinically healthy butcher's pig which are actually infected with Salmonella is pointed out.
