Using Moore's swabs in four abattoirs, six strains of subgenus III salmonellas were isolated—four diphasic strains belonging to one serotype and two monophasic strains belonging to another. The serotypes differed in the length of time needed to ferment lactose. There was some evidence that the diphasic serotype could have had an ovine origin.
