What can I do to prevent salmonellosis? What is salmonellosis? Salmonellosis is an infection with a bacteria called Salmonella. Most persons infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days, and most persons recover without treatment. However, in some persons the diarrhea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. In these patients, the Salmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the blood stream, and then to other body sites and can cause death unless the person is treated promptly with antibiotics. The elderly, infants, and those with impaired immune systems are more likely to have a severe illness. What sort of germ is Salmonella?

What foods have been commonly associated with Salmonella Good Practices for Food Product Receiving, Handling, Processing, and Storage Personal Hygiene What is the Proper Procedure for Hand Washing? Resources: Footnotes Preventing Foodborne Illness: Salmonellosis This is one in a series of fact sheets targeting the processing and retail sector of food science. What causes a foodborne illness? Bacteria, viruses, chemicals, and some other organisms can cause foodborne illnesses. Salmonella is a group of bacteria that can cause diarrheal illness in people. It has been known for over 100 years that Salmonella contaminated food can cause illness. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, GA in 1999 estimated that there were about 1.5 million cases with some 500 deaths associated with the consumption of food contaminated with Salmonella . Estimates are necessary because not all cases of foodborne illness are reported. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) estimated that in 1995, salmonellosis from foodborne sources resulted in economic loses of $350 million to 1.5 billion dollars.

KidsHealth Parents Infections A salmonella infection is a foodborne illness caused by the salmonella bacteria carried by some animals, which can be transmitted on kitchen surfaces and in water, soil, animal feces, raw meats, and eggs. Salmonella infections typically affect a child's intestines, causing vomiting, fever, and other symptoms that usually resolve without medical treatment. You can help prevent salmonella infections by not serving any raw meat or eggs, and by not keeping reptiles as pets, particularly if you have very young children. Hand washing is a powerful way to guard against salmonella infections, so it's essential to teach children to wash their hands, particularly after trips to the bathroom and before handling food in any way. Salmonella Basics Not everyone who ingests salmonella bacteria will become ill. Children, especially infants, are the most likely candidates to get sick from it. About 50,000 cases of salmonella infection are reported in the United States each year and about one third of those cases are in children who are 4 years old or younger. The type of salmonella most commonly associated with infections in humans is called nontyphoidal salmonella . It is carried by chickens, cows, and reptiles such as turtles, lizards, and iguanas.

Finding The Latest Information: Advances in treating opportunistic infections can happen at any time, so the material on this page may be outdated. Some links in the see also section at the bottom of this page are actually special database links. They may contain information published after this page was written. Classification bacterial Description Salmonella is bacterial infection caused from eating contaminated food or drinking contaminated water. Salmonellae non-spore-forming, gram-negative rods of the family Eterobacteriaceae. S. typhosa cause typhoid fever, and other S. cause diarrhea. Symptoms: Symptoms can include severe diarrhea, fever, chills, abdominal discomfort, and occasionally vomiting. The symptoms generally appear one to three days after exposure. Serious bloodstream infections can occur, particularly in the very young or elderly. ( BW Contagious Period: The infectious period can vary from several days to many months. Those who have been treated with oral antibiotics tend to carry the germ longer than others. Infected food handlers, health care workers, and individuals associated with daycare must obtain the approval of their local health department before returning to work or daycare. (

KidsHealth Teens Infections Chris never thought that his pet would make him sick. After all, he'd decided on an iguana because he wasn't allergic to them like he was to dogs and cats. But when Chris started having a fever, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea, he went to see the doctor. The doctor diagnosed him with an infection called salmonellosis (pronounced: sal-muh-neh- loh -sis) and said that the iguana may have been the cause. What Is Salmonellosis? Salmonellosis is an illness caused by Salmonella bacteria. An infection with these bacteria usually affects the gastrointestinal system (the stomach and intestines) in humans. In more severe cases, Salmonella can spread to the blood, the bones, or even to the fluid around the brain, but these types of infection are less common. An American scientist named Daniel E. Salmon is credited with the discovery of the Salmonella family of bacteria in the late 1800s. Though named for him, it turns out that Salmon was not the true discoverer of Salmonella - a researcher working under him named Theobald Smith actually deserves the credit. Since then, scientists have identified more than 2,400 types of

Salmonellosis is a common bacterial infection caused by any of more than 2,000 strains of Salmonella . These bacteria infect the intestinal tract and occasionally the blood. Annually, there are 600 to 800 cases reported in Washington. How does a person get salmonellosis? People are most often infected by eating or drinking contaminated food or water or by contact with infected people or animals. Salmonellosis is typically a food-borne illness acquired from contaminated raw poultry, eggs, and unpasteurized milk and cheese products. Less commonly, outbreaks have been associated with contamination of produce, cereal, candy, spices, and beverages. Other sources of exposure include contact with infected animals, especially turtles, iguanas, other reptiles, chicks, cattle and poultry. Who gets salmonellosis? Anyone who is exposed to Salmonella bacteria can get salmonellosis, but it is most commonly recognized in children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems. What are the symptoms?

16. Salmonella And Other Zoonoses: The Basics Discusses salmonellosis and other zoonoses carried by reptiles and other pets. http://www.anapsid.org/salmsymptoms.html

Melissa Kaplan's Herp Care Collection Last updated March 5, 2003 Salmonella and Other Zoonoses: The Basics If you have an iguana, chances are someone you know has already grilled you or freaked you out because they think you are going to get sick or die because your iguana has Salmonella . There is indeed a risk of contracting or causing others to contract a Salmonella infection from your iguana if you are not aware of the potential for infection and fail to take adequate means to avoid infection and transmission. What the person who informed you about iguana salmonellosis probably doesn't know is that he or she is just as likely to get sick from other reptiles, other pets, and foodborne organisms and chemicals. Potentially harmful organisms and chemicals are all around us - and in us. Iguanas have been making headlines in the past decade because they were the top-selling reptile in the US (and increasingly in other countries) and were sold by people who were clueless about zoonoses to people who were equally clueless. When the Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council (PIJAC) was recommending iguanas as great holiday gifts because they are so easy to care for, with no mention of any health concerns, well, it was only a matter of time before iguana-associated salmonellosis became a well publicized public health issue. Back in the 1960s through the early 1970s, headlines and health concerns were centered around the equally cheap, widely soldand wildly ill-treatedaquatic turtles who were riddled with
