[Large intestine microflora of patients with various clinical forms of salmonellosis].

The study of the asporogenic and facultative microflora in the contents of the large intestine in salmonellosis patients has revealed the presence of dysbacteriosis manifested, irrespective of the serovar of the isolated infective agent, by a decrease in asporogenic microflora and an increase in E. coli and staphylococci. Dysbacteriosis develops irrespective of the clinical form of the disease, but it is more pronounced if the disease takes a dysentery-like course. The average amount of released salmonellae in the gastrointestinal and dysentery-like forms of the disease has been the same, which indicates that the shift is probably linked with the dominant localization of the process depending, in its turn, on the virulence of the infective agent.
