Abstract
A phage typing scheme for Salmonella braenderup based on both phage sensitivity and lysogenicity patterns is presented. Three S. braenderup symbiotic phages (br A, br B, and br C) were used in the phage sensitivity test, and three indicator strains were used for the lysogenicity test. The 424 strains examined were grouped in 15 of 64 possible types within this scheme. The most frequent types were: A1 (32%), G5 (21%), F2 (14%), and H1 (8%). All of the strains isolated successively from the same person belonged to the same type, as did the strains isolated from groups of individuals related to a common source.
