Abstract

Investigations of the prevalence of SalmoneIla organisms in chicken of Suwon area and the effect of selenite broth on the growth of Sal. pullorum were made. The results obtained were summarized as foIlowings. 1. Salmonella organisms was not isolated from fecal samples of 357 chicken from 6 poultry farms of Suwon area. 2. In selenite broth, the growth of Sal. pullorum was completely inhibited may due to the toxic effect of the medium when the inoculum contained less than $5{\times}10^3$ organisms. However, enrichment was attained overcoming the inhibitory action of the medium when $5{\times}10^3$ or more organisms were inoculated.
