Salmonellae were isolated from 22 out of 300 bacon pigs sampled at slaughter; 18 of the isolations were made from lymph node material and four from caecal contents. Follow up investigations showed the presence of multiple infection on two farms. The correlation of these isolations with serotypes present in feedingstuffs and those isolated from clinical disease outbreaks is discussed. During the study three enrichment broths were used and the results of these are compared.
