摘要：Salmonella Litchfield is a reasonably common serotype in northern Australia, but less so in southern Australia. From 2002 to 2008, non-human isolates of S. Litchfield were reported in 4 Australian jurisdictions and included isolates from animals (cats and dogs, farmed crocodiles and a dairy cow), foods (cucumber, millet, tree nuts, papaya and barramundi) and an environmental survey of frogs, lizards and contents from vacuum cleaners around homes in Darwin (personal communication, National Enteric Pathogens Surveillance Scheme, Microbiological Diagnostic Unit, Public Health Laboratory, University of Melbourne, 14 May 2010).
