Comparison of rectal swabs with fecal cultures for detection of Salmonella typhimurium in adult volunteersCamille N Kotton
Infectious Disease Unit, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis 56:123-6. 2006..When compared with fecal culture, rectal swabs were 64% sensitive and 90% specific. Rectal swabs are of moderate diagnostic utility for detection of Salmonella and may be useful when collection of fecal samples is impractical...
