[Application of the Moore swab method to the isolation of Aeromonas spp. from residual waters].
The Moore swab technique was applied in waste water from three different areas of the "Pedro Kouri" Institute of Tropical Medicine, with the view to isolate organisms of the genus Aeromonas. Swabs were placed once a week, in the wards of Medicine, Screening, and Diagnostic Laboratory. Of 13 swabs placed in the Medicine ward, 8 were positive. Of 15 swabs placed in Diagnostic Laboratory, 8 were positive, and of 18 placed in the screening ward, 12 were positive. Of a total 46 swabs, 28 disclosed organisms of the genus Aeromonas.
