Salmonella, arizona, Shigella and Aeromonas isolated from the snail Achatina achatina in Nigeria.

S K Obi, B C Nzeako.   

Abstract

The Salmonella, Arizona, Shigella and Aeromonas contents of 39 snails (Achatina achatina) were investigated. Serotyping of the Salmonella isolates revealed the presence of S. manhattan, S. ndolo, S. reading, S. uppsala, and S. typhimurium. Six of 18 Shigella isolates were identified as Sh. sonnei while all the Aeromonas proved to be A. hydrophila. Fifty eight percent of these A. hydrophila isolates were enterotoxigenic, and their toxin was shown to be heat labile. All the A. hydrophila strains were both protease positive and haemolytic: 66.7% being both alpha and beta haemolytic while 33.3% showed only alpha haemolysis.
