title: [Report on Salmonella isolates submitted to the German National Reference Laboratory for running analyses and tests on zoonoses (Salmonella) in the year 2009].
abstract: The present report deals with Salmonella strains received at the German National Reference Laboratory for Salmonella (NRL-Salm) for routine diagnostic in the year 2009. Hence, the working group continues the previous report from Friedrich et al. (2010) about the documentation on the serovar distribution of Salmonella received at the NRL-Salm in the years 2004-2008. As in the recent years, most of the Salmonella strains originated from livestock and food. In the year 2009 the NRL-Salm received 4765 isolates, most of them (85,1 %) were routine diagnostic. Salmonella ser. Typhimurium, its monophasic variant S. enterica subspecies enterica serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:- and Salmonella ser. Enteritidis were the most prevalent serovars. The number of S. enterica subsp. enterica serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:- isolates increased in 2009, in comparison to the years 2004-2008, and became the second most prevalent serovar serotyped at the NRL-Salm.
