Abstract
SUMMARY: Food poisoning due toSalmonella typhimuriumphage type 141 was unusual inthe Sheffield area before 1984. The sudden increase in incidence of this phage type during 1984 and 1985, and its causative role in several small outbreaks in this period have been investigated. Epidemiological and laboratory investigations suggested that hens' eggs were the most likely source ofS. typhimuriumphage type 141.This publication has 31 references indexed in Scilit:
