| Abstract | ||
| Through the period extending from the 1st till the 27th of November, 2002, blood samples were collected for culture from 209 patients attending two health centers at Al-Sadder, a large province of the capital Baghdad, complaining of fever. Forty eight samples yielded positive results with the isolation of Salmonella typhi. Epidemiological study was planned to demonstrate possible source of infection. Markers used were Antibiogram, Biotyping, and plasmid profile. All isolates were susceptible to the majority of antibiotic tested. One pattern of biochemical reactions was seen. Plasmid profiles showed at least three patterns. | ||
