摘要
An institutional outbreak of gastroenteritis provided an opportunity to investigate further the isolates of Salmonella typhimurium by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Three phage types were identified, Antibiograms identified two types and two distinct patterns were found on PFGE, If phage typing alone is used for epidemiological study of strains, it is possible that an association between strains may be missed.
