Survival of Shigella dysenteriae on fomites
Studies have shown that various objects, such as utensils, toys, and clothes, can serve as vehicles for transmission of Shigella spp. Shigellae can become viable but non-culturable (VBNC) when exposed to various environmental conditions as shown in earlier studies. The present study was carried out to detect VBNC Shigella dysenteriae type 1 on various fomites by direct viable counting, polymera...
متن کاملThe Specificity of the Agglutinin Reaction for Shigella dysenteriae: II. Agglutinin Absorption Relationships between Shigella dysenteriae and Escherichia coli.
In a previous communication (Mackie, 1938) we have reported observations upon the Shigella dysenteriae agglutinin curves in a group of patients presenting the intestinal pathology of chronic bacillary dysentery and bacteriologic or serologic evdence of infection by these organisms. Fluctuation of the titre curves in individual patients, the common finding of higher titres in the culture-negativ...

متن کاملThe spread of Shigella dysenteriae type I in Africa.
INTRODUCTION Since Shiga's bacilli were discovered 100 years ago, Shigella dysenteriae type I (SD 1) has been implicated in large-scale epidemics world-wide with many thousands of deaths. Its infectivity and virulence, protean manifestations and propensity to develop multi-drug resistance, has meant that as a cause of disease it has not been conquered despite all advances. Epidemic Shigella has...
