Isolation of new serovars of Salmonella in streams of water

The present work is the final stage of a research to determine the causes and degree of pollution of the Zaiman creek waters, which flow through the Capital District of Misiones, Argentina. The research was focused on the presence of Salmonella serovars in samples collected from 2 stream sites equid...
