Abstract; Results
quote
National data from 1973 to 1984 showed that S enteritidis outbreaks (44%) were more frequently associated with egg-containing foods than were outbreaks of other Salmonella serotypes (15%).

Serotype-specific contrast establishing the egg link as specific to S. enteritidis rather than a generic Salmonella-egg association.
