Survivability of Salmonella paratyphi B var Java on experimentally infected cockroaches.

Abstract:

:Cockroaches are inhabitant of sewers and frequent visitors of kitchen and stores in the night to feed on left over. It is liable to disseminate a number of pathogens by contaminating kitchen surface, feeding vessels and food items left open. Salmonella paratyphi B var Java a common pathogen of man and animal was used in the study to evaluate its survival and excretion in cockroaches. The host when fed on semisolid feed containing 1 x 10(7) CFU of S. paratyphi B var Java g-1, it was found that the pathogen was eliminated earlier from the live than euthanized cockroaches.
