Plasmid profiles of value in differentiating Salmonella muenster isolates.

PMCID: PMC272819  PMID: 6874907

Abstract

Strains of Salmonella muenster displaying identical antibiotic susceptibility and bacteriophage reaction patterns were found to differ in their complements of plasmid DNA. Plasmid profiles were used to separate 40 isolates from diverse sources into four distinct groups, one of which contained 30 strains without plasmids.
