Usually human cases are related to contaminated food, especially poultry, eggs, milk and their products. Persons who work with animals may become infected by the agent shed in animal feces. Human Salmonellosis may occur 6-72 hours after ingestion of the agent. Fever, muscle aches, headache and malaise are followed by abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. The diarrhea may resolve in 2-4 days but some people may continue to shed the bacteria with no signs of disease. Some types of Salmonella can cause septicemia which can result in a disease of longer duration and greater severity. 2, record 5, English, - human%20salmonellosis

After emergency monitoring of surface-deposited radioactivity defines the boundaries of contaminated areas, non-dairy food and drinking water within the boundaries should be sampled and analyzed. Laboratory tests on food samples may include strontium analyses or other chemical separations. Field monitoring instrumentation for water should be similar to that recommended for emergency milk monitoring, i. e. immersion counting or ion-exchange resin counting. 1, record 6, English, - milk%20monitoring
