title: [Epidemiological data on salmonellosis due to Salmonella enteritidis in some areas of the Russian Federation].
abstract: A rise in morbidity caused by S. enteritidis at individual territories of the Russian Federation in the second half of 1980s was due to the consumption of insufficiently heated infected chicken eggs and the nonobservance of sanitary and hygienic rules in the preparation of food from chicken meat. The spread of S. enteritidis in the Russian Federation occurred mainly at the territories supplied with incubator eggs from the same poultry-breeding enterprise. S. enteritidis strains isolated from infected patients, chicken eggs, follicles and chicken-meat products belonged to biovar Jena (as a rule, to phagovar 1), had plasmid with a mol. wt. of 38 MD, produced no aerobactin, and their overwhelming majority was resistant to antibiotics.
