A total of 1,171 human faeces and 269 water samples were examined for Plesiomonas shigelloides in Zaria. The rate of isolation for humans was 0.17% while the detection rates in pond and well water samples were 7.4% and 0.6% respectively. No recoveries were made from water samples taken from streams, dams, tanks and taps. Neither Shigella nor Salmonella was isolated from the water samples tested. It is concluded that water may play a role in the epidemiology of P. shigelloides but may not be a common vehicle for transmission of Shigella and Salmonella in Zaria, Nigeria.
在扎里亚,共检测了1171份人类粪便样本和269份水样中的类志贺邻单胞菌。人类样本的分离率为0.17%,而池塘水和井水样本的检出率分别为7.4%和0.6%。从溪流、水坝、水箱和水龙头采集的水样中未分离到该菌。在所检测的水样中也未分离到志贺氏菌和沙门氏菌。结论是,水可能在类志贺邻单胞菌的流行病学中起作用,但在尼日利亚扎里亚,水可能不是志贺氏菌和沙门氏菌传播的常见载体。
