Bacteriophage prophylaxis against Salmonella enteritidis and Salmonella pullorum using Caenorhabditis elegans as an assay system

Identification and Discrimination of Salmonella Enteritidis, S. Pullorum, S. Gallinarum and S. Dublin Using Salmonella Specific Genomic Regions Amplification Assay

Background: DNA amplification method has been developed for identifying and discriminating Salmonella serovars, using specific primers at the genus and serovar levels and to identify the S. Enteritidis, S. Dublin, S. Gallinarum and S. Pullorum. Objectives: This study was conducted for molecular identification and discrimination among some important Salmonella serovars. Methods: Fifty isolates o...

Infection of Salmonella pullorum, Salmonella newington or Salmonella enteritidis in laboratory rats by oral inoculation.

Immunoprotectivity of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis virulence protein, InvH, against Salmonella typhi

Objective(s):Typhoid fever is a dreadful disease of a major threat to public health in developing countries. Vaccination with bacterial immunodominant components such as surface proteins may prove as a potent alternative to live attenuated vaccines. InvH, an important part of needle complex in type three secretion system (TTSS) plays important role in efficient bacterial adherence and entry int...

Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella enteritidis strains

Salmonella is a facultative intracellular pathogen that causes a variety of infectious diseases. The most common of such diseases is gastroenteritis, with bacterial multiplication in intestinal submucosae and diarrhea, caused by the inflammatory response and perhaps also by toxins. In specific hosts, adapted salmonellae produce systemic diseases such as typhoid and paratyphoid fevers in humans....

Salmonella Enteritidis bacteriophage candidates for phage therapy of poultry.

AIMS Salmonella is a worldwide foodborne pathogen causing acute enteric infections in humans. In the recent years, the use of bacteriophages has been suggested as a possible tool to combat this zoonotic pathogen in poultry farms. This work aims to isolate and perform comparative studies of a group of phages active against a collection of specific Salmonella Enteritidis strains from Portugal and...
