Excerpt
Universal interest in the problems of salmonellosis is understandable. At the present time this is one of the most widely distributed zoonotic and foodborne diseases affecting millions of people and producing severe economic losses. Various specific measures for prevention and control of infectious diseases (such as vaccination, therapeutic treatment, etc) are less effective in the case of salmonellosis. The introduction of the pathogenic agent into soil, manure, reservoirs and air, and its transmission by vectors such as insects, birds, rodents, etc, as well as through foods of animal origin, are important factors in the spread of salmonellosis and the conversion of sporadic cases into epidemics. In this connexion, disinfection, which is a method of destroying aetiological agents in the environment and of eliminating the risk of human and animal infection from the surroundings, is of great importance.
