BACKGROUND Culture of S. Typhi is necessary for the definitive diagnosis of typhoid fever and provides isolates for antibiotic susceptibility testing and epidemiological studies. However, current methods are not fully optimised and sourcing culture media and bottles for culture media may be problematic. METHODOLOGY In two hospital laboratories in Viet Nam, comparisons of media for blood and s...

1. The theory of the production of gall-bladder lesions in typhoid, by descending infection of the bile from the liver receives support from investigations with the common duct fistula method in the rabbit. More bacilli appear in the bile with increased doses and more gall-bladder infections are obtained by increased doses. More bacilli appear in the bile after mesenteric vein injection than af...

We tested bile acid oxazoline derivatives of chenodeoxycholic (CDC-OX), 7-ketolithocholic (7-KLC-OX), ursodeoxycholic (UDC-OX), and deoxycholic (DC-OX) as inhibitors of the 7-epimerization of the primary bile acids cholic acid (CA) and CDC in cultures of four species of bacteria and the human fecal flora. The organisms tested elaborate a 7 alpha- and/or 7 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSDH...
متن کاملContribution to the Manner of Spread of Mouse Typhoid Infection
The experiments reported in this paper and in the preceding one indicate that with a given susceptible mouse population and a certain strain of mouse typhoid bacilli the sporadic and epidemic prevalences of mouse typhoid are determined by the spacial and quantitative distribution of the bacilli. Under circumstances in which the entire mouse population is so exposed as to be in direct contact wi...
