Food-borne salmonellosis continues to be a major health concern worldwide. Carrycontamination of Salmonella frequently occurs in meat production. We focused on cell dynamics of swine fibroblasts after infection with Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis and Typhimurium, because fibroblast can be a target cell for Salmonella latent infection. It was found that both S. Enteritidis and S. Typhim...

Salmonella Typhimurium is the most common bacterial cause of gastrointestinal disease in NSW. Regular review of surveillance procedures ensures system objectives are met and informs improvements in system utility and efficiency. This paper assesses the timeliness and data completeness of NSW Salmonella Typhimurium surveillance after the routine introduction of multilocus variable repeat analysi...

Front Cover: Nanocomplexes of acid-transforming chitosan (ATC) and DNA fragments are endocytosed to Salmonella Typhimurium-infected macrophages. The mildly acidic environment in the phagolysosome converts ATC an antimicrobial which is subsequently released from nanocomplexes effectively eradicates S. Typhimurium both cytoplasm via tackling a broad range key microbial proteins. This reported by ...

We investigated IgG, IgA and IgM class specific antibodies to five bacterial (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium and Shigella flexneri) lipopolysaccharides (LPS) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 144 Japanese patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). AS patients had significantly elevated IgA antibodies to K. pneumoniae LPS, Salmonella...

P22, a temperate phage which grows on Salmoneua typhimurium, is capable of carrying out general&d transduction in this host. The general&d transducing particles are the same size ss P22 phage particles but instead of phage DNA they contain bacterial DNA which was synthesized before phage infection. Further, DNA molecules isolated from the transducing particles have the same molecular weight as ...

Groups of immobilized gnotobiotic houseflies, Musca domestica L., were mono-contaminated with graded doses of Salmonella typhimurium, bicontaminated with S. typhimurium and Proteus mirabilis, and multicontaminated with S. typhimurium and a mouse fecal flora. Of 45 flies fed an average of 22 Salmonella cells alone, 26 showed bacterial multiplication, up to 1.4 x 10(7) in one case. There was a fa...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of Salmonella spp., Salmonella Enteritidis and Salmonella Typhimurium in retail beef from different retail markets of Selangor area, as well as, to assess their pathogenic potential and antimicrobial resistance. A total of 240 retail beef meat samples (chuck = 60; rib = 60; round = 60; sirloin = 60) were randomly collected. The mult...

Presence of blood spots in eggs has been correlated with a greater rate of Salmonella Enteritidis contamination. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine whether Salmonella inoculated into egg albumen with naturally occurring blood spots would survive or grow. In each of 3 trials, white shell table eggs with blood spots were collected from a commercial egg-processing plant after candlin...

Nucleoids from Salmonella typhimurium strain LT2 consist of supercoiled deoxyribonucleic acid structures that are ribonuclease labile sedimenting at 1,700S. More than 90% of the covalently closed circular deoxyribonucleic acid of a cryptic plasmid harbored by this strain cosediments with the host's 1,700S nucleoids.

Combined inoculation of a cell-free extract of leukotic tissue of D103 mice and Salmonella typhimurium into adult Swiss mice induced leukosis and solid tumors. The induced solid tumors were histologically multifarious, and were transplantable in Swiss mice, but not in other strains of mice.
