Abstract
SUMMARY: From comparative study of four methods of isolation of Salmonella from egg products, of six enrichment broths and five selective media, and of several secondary technical operations, a recommended scheme for isolation of salmonellae from foods was devised and shown to be effective for diverse foods containing as few as 0.15 salmonellae per g, even in the presence of extreme coliform and other bacterial contamination.
