A monophasic strain of Salmonella group B having the antigenic structure 4, 12: a: - was isolated in culture from various tissues of 39 harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena). The tissue from which the organism was recovered most frequently was lung in 33 animals and intestine in 16 animals, but it was also isolated from heart valve, liver, kidney, spleen, mesenteric lymph node, pulmonary lymph node, hepatic lymph node, urethra, sheath and epididymis. As far as we are aware this is the first record of this strain from an animal source, raising the possibility that it may be host-adapted to harbour porpoises. The possible modes of transmission of monophasic group B Salmonella between porpoises are discussed.
从39只港湾鼠海豚（Phocoena phocoena）的各种组织培养物中分离出一种抗原结构为4, 12: a: - 的B群单相沙门氏菌菌株。分离出该菌的组织中，最常见的是33只动物的肺和16只动物的肠道，但也从心脏瓣膜、肝脏、肾脏、脾脏、肠系膜淋巴结、肺淋巴结、肝淋巴结、尿道、包皮和附睾中分离出该菌。据我们所知，这是该菌株首次来自动物源的记录，这增加了它可能宿主适应港湾鼠海豚的可能性。文中讨论了B群单相沙门氏菌在鼠海豚之间可能的传播方式。
