| phage types of salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis isolated in south africa from 1991-1995. | a total of 615 strains of salmonella enterica serovar enteritidis (se), received from 1991-1995 at the onderstepoort veterinary institute (ovi), were phage typed. most se isolates (54,7%) originated from poultry followed by humans (28,5 %) and poultry eggs (9,6 %). phage type 34 was the most prevalent (40,5 %) of all isolates, followed by phage type 4 (33,8 %). other phage types identified were 1, lb, 4a, 7, 7a, 9a, 14, 24, 24var and 35 (in total 2,4% of isolates). most isolates of se were recei ... | 2000 | 11028749 |

| high mortality from respiratory failure secondary to swine-origin influenza a (h1n1) in south africa. | the novel influenza a (h1n1) pandemic affected south africa late during the 2009 southern hemisphere winter and placed an extra burden on a health care system already dealing with a high prevalence of chronic lung diseases and human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) infection. | 2010 | 20219780 |
| antimicrobial susceptibility in thermophilic campylobacter species isolated from pigs and chickens in south africa. | campylobacter jejuni is one of the leading causes of sporadic food-borne bacterial disease in humans. in intensive poultry and pig rearing systems the use of oral antibiotics is essential to maintain health. consequently, there is a high risk for the thermophilic campylobacter jejuni and c. coli resident in the intestinal tract of food animals to develop resistance to commonly used antibiotics. contamination of meat or eggs with pathogenic strains of resistant campylobacter could, therefore, res ... | 2010 | 21526738 |
| comparison of the effects of different transport conditions and lairage times in a mediterranean climate in south africa on the meat quality of commercially crossbred large white x landrace pigs. | information on the effect of road transportation conditions and lairage times on the meat quality of pork under south african conditions is very sparse. in this investigation, the effects of 2 road conditions (rough road with frequent stops - a; smooth road, few stops - b) and 2 lairage holding periods (2 h and 24 h) on the physical meat quality attributes of commercially produced pigs during summer (ambient temperatures > 30 degrees c) in the western cape (south africa) were investigated. pig m ... | 2010 | 21526737 |
