| influence of environmental factors and human activity on the presence of salmonella serovars in a marine environment. | the temporal and spatial distribution of salmonella contamination in the coastal waters of galicia (northwestern spain) relative to contamination events with different environmental factors (temperature, wind, hours of sunlight, rainfall, and river flow) were investigated over a 4-year period. salmonellae were isolated from 127 of 5,384 samples of molluscs and seawater (2.4%), and no significant differences (p < 0.05) between isolates obtained in different years were observed. the incidence of s ... | 2004 | 15066800 |
| identification of salmonella serovars isolated from live molluscan shellfish and their significance in the marine environment. | a study on the presence of salmonella spp. in live molluscs was performed, which included a description of the different serovars isolated and their relationship to the marine environment. a total of 2,980 samples of shellfish from galicia (n.w. spain) were tested for the presence of salmonella spp. between september 1998 and august 2001. the overall incidence of salmonella was 1.8% and showed a slight rise during the 3 years of the study. mussels and oysters presented a higher incidence than cl ... | 2003 | 12597481 |
