Received 10 March 2000/Accepted 7 June 2000

Storage of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strains in soil and water microcosms resulted in loss of culturability on standard plating media. Prior incubation in buffered peptone water supplemented with ferrioxamine E markedly extended the time that bacteria were recoverable by plating, except in the case of mutants deficient in ferrioxamine E uptake.
