Typhoid disease or salmonellosis is a common sickness in horses. In several epidemiological studies inhospitalized horses, several serotypes of Salmonella often are predominant in nosocomial infections.Transportation, overcrowding, dehydration, oral antimicrobial therapy and infections are the risk factorswhich may activate latent or subclinical salmonellosis. In this study, t...

Background: Poultry products have been recognized as major sources of human gastrointestinal disease caused by Salmonella spp. and several outbreaks have been reported where eggs were the source of human infection. OBJECTIVES: This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Salmonella spp. in the quail egg interior contents from retail stores of Semnan, Iran and to characterize the i...

hiv-related immunosuppression significantly increases the risk of acquiring opportunistic infections. this report describes a 69-year-old man, referred to hospital with decreased consciousness and productive cough. this man was a known case of human immunodeficiency virus positive. the sputum of this patient was positive for salmonella typhimurium. pulmonary auscultation signaled brief and scat...

background : the aim of this study was to compare the antimicrobial activity of watermelon juice probioticated using differ­ent strains of lactobacilli against salmonella typhi murium. methods : probioticated watermelon juice was produced using four strains of lactobacilli (lactobacillus casei, l. acidophil­lus, l. fementum and l. plantarum ). the watermelon juice was pasteurized for 30 minutes...

An Au-on-Au tip sensor is developed for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium (Salmonella), using a new synthetic nucleic acid probe (NAP) as linker immobilization DNA-conjugated Au nanoparticle (AuNP) onto DNA-attached thin layer inside pipette tip. In presence Salmonella, RNase H2 from (STH2) cleaves NAP and freed AuNP can be visually detected by paper strip. This portable biosensor does no...

conclusions the results indicate that multidrug-resistant (mdr) strains of salmonella are increasing in number, and fewer antibiotics may be useful for treating s. enterica infections. routine investigation and reporting of antibiotic mics in patients presenting with salmonella infections is suggested. results of the total 19 salmonella spp. isolates recovered by the bactec automated system, al...

Three new Salmonella serotypes belonging to Kauffmann's subgenus I (F. Kauffmann, The Bacteriology of Enterobacteriaceae, 1966) were identified. These serotypes were Salmonella brazos 6,14,18:a:e,n,z15, Salmonella midway 6,14,24:d:1,7, and Salmonella balboa 48a, 48b:z41:monophasic.

OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between the presence of a genetic island inserted within the sapABCDF operon of Salmonella Typhi and the susceptibility to antimicrobial peptides. METHODS Genetics and bioinformatics approaches were used to study the genomic organization of the sap operon of Salmonella Typhi and several serovars of Salmonella enterica. PCR was used to confirm the info...

The current study investigated the effect of environmental stressors (i.e., weather changes) on Salmonella shedding in free-range production systems and the correlations with behavioral and physiological measures (i.e., fecal glucocorticoid metabolites). This involved longitudinal and point-in-time surveys of Salmonella shedding and environmental contamination on four commercial free-range laye...
