Multidrug–Resistant Salmonella Typhimurium Definitive Type 104

Genomic Analysis of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Definitive Phage Type 104

identified mainly carbapenem-hydrolyzing carbapenemase OXA-58 (9). Recently, we showed that the blaNDM-1 gene was carried by a composite transposon bracketed by 2 copies of ISAba125 in A. baumannii (10). Cloning and sequencing of the genetic context of the blaNDM-1 in the first isolate showed that transposon Tn125 was truncated at its 3′-end extremity by insertion sequence ISAba14, giving rise ...

Comparison of immunoblot analysis of emergent multidrug-resistant Salmonella typhimurium definitive phage type 104 with a non-multidrug-resistant definitive phage type 104 strain.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The emergent multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella typhimurium definitive phage type 104 (DT104) is a public and veterinary health problem not only due to its wide host range and potential for enhanced virulence, but also the difficulty associated with its control. There is thus a need to investigate possible antigens of MDR DT104. METHODS Using standard protocols, whole...

Characterization of the genomes of a diverse collection of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium definitive phage type 104.

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium definitive phage type 104 (DT104) has caused significant morbidity and mortality in humans and animals for almost three decades. We completed the full DNA sequence of one DT104 strain, NCTC13348, and showed that significant differences between the genome of this isolate and the genome of the previously sequenced strain Salmonella serovar Typhimurium LT2 a...

Large outbreak of food poisoning caused by Salmonella typhimurium definitive type 49 in mayonnaise.

An investigation was conducted to determine the vehicle of infection of an outbreak of food poisoning in a large metropolitan building early in 1988. A questionnaire was distributed to 700 people who had eaten in the building during the week of the outbreak, and attack rates for specific food were calculated. Food and stool samples, environmental samples, and eggs and environmental swabs from t...
