Ten thousand or more cranes migrate from Siberia and stay at the Izumi Plains, in the northern part of Kagoshima prefecture, Japan, every winter season. Four hundred and twenty samples of cranes feces were obtained 1995 to 1997 and investigated for Salmonella. As a result, twenty-nine of Salmonella strains were isolated. All isolates were determined to be identical, Salmonella Typhimurium (04:i: 1,2). since all of them indicated the same patterns of plasmid profiling and antibiotic sensitive spectrums. The isolates showed a high pathogenicity to chicken, and most of them were isolated in the latter half of the winter season; therefore the cranes were infected with the isolates during the winter season.
每年冬季,一万多只鹤从西伯利亚迁徙至日本鹿儿岛县北部的出水平原并停留。1995年至1997年期间,采集了420份鹤粪便样本进行沙门氏菌检测。结果分离出29株沙门氏菌菌株。所有分离株经鉴定均为同一菌株,鼠伤寒沙门氏菌(04:i:1,2),因为它们均呈现相同的质粒图谱模式和抗生素敏感谱。这些分离株对鸡具有高致病性,且大多数分离株是在冬季后半段分离得到的;因此,鹤在冬季感染了这些分离株。
