RESUMO
Eleven Shigella flexneri (group B) isolates were recovered from epidemiologically linked patrons and food handlers from a restaurant-associated outbreak of shigellosis. Six isolates available for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis were identical. All strains agglutinated in group B and subgroup factor 6 sera but not in group 1 through group 6 sera.
