Salmonellosis remains an important cause of diarrheal illness in humans in São Paulo State, Brazil. In this study were identified 3554 Salmonella isolates from human infections, during the period 1996-2003. Among 68 different serovars determined, S. Enteritidis was the most frequent one in gastrointestinal and extra-intestinal infections accounting for 67.4% of all isolates. S. Typhimurium and S. enterica subsp. enterica (4,5,12:i:-) were most frequently isolated from children aged < 1-4 year-old, in contrast, people with S. Enteritidis infections were most likely to be 20-50 year-old. In our geographic area the continued laboratorial surveillance of salmonellosis, including serotyping, has showed the trends in Salmonella serovars causing infections in humans throughout the time.
沙门氏菌病仍是巴西圣保罗州人类腹泻疾病的一个重要病因。在本研究中，鉴定出了1996年至2003年期间3554株来自人类感染的沙门氏菌分离株。在确定的68种不同血清型中，肠炎沙门氏菌在胃肠道和肠外感染中最为常见，占所有分离株的67.4%。鼠伤寒沙门氏菌和肠炎沙门氏菌亚种（4,5,12:i:-）最常从1至4岁以下儿童中分离出来，相比之下，感染肠炎沙门氏菌的人最有可能是20至50岁。在我们所在的地理区域，对沙门氏菌病进行持续的实验室监测，包括血清分型，显示了沙门氏菌血清型在这段时间内引起人类感染的趋势。
