Abstract
Abstract The polluted Fox River in suburban Kane County, Illinois, was investigated as a source for Salmonella dispersal to near shore habitats. A Salmonella isolation protocol, which included pre‐enrichment of environmental samples in buffered peptone water, vas more effective than direct enrichment in tetrathionate. Some animals associated with the river were found to be Infected with Salmonella. and the river's immediate edge was often contaminated; however, our results suggest that the river is not an intensive Salmonella threat to humans, except perhaps for those who directly contact the water.
