摘要
Multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi B dT+ isolates from patients with gastroenteritis were identical with isolates from their home aquariums. Matched isolates had identical phage types, Xbal and IS200 profiles, and Salmonella genomic island 1 (SGl1). Ornamental fish tanks are reservoirs for SGl1-containing S. Paratyphi B dT+.
