Molecular Epidemiology of Salmonella enterica and Subtyping Using Phenotypic and Genotypic Approaches
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study was to evaluate the discriminatory power of two phenotyping and three genotyping methods commonly used to subtype Salmonella in swine and other hosts. We found AFLP and PFGE to have the highest and comparable discriminatory power to each other. Among the 202 isolates analyzed in this study, using AFLP, 16 cluster types of S. Typhimurium were identified. Vertical spread in the production chain, from nursery to finishing farms and vertical as well as horizontal spread among finishing farms appeared to be important means of Salmonella serovar Typhimurium dissemination in swine units.

Salmonella infections are the second leading cause of zoonotic bacterial foodborne illness. Main source of infection in human is contaminated food products. The aim of this study was sub typing isolates of Salmonella entericaobtained during our previous study byPulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) technique. All 46 Salmonella isolates were serotyped and then subjected to PFGE. Total isolates...

Salmonellosis is one of the most common causes of foodborne infection and a leading cause of human gastroenteritis. Throughout the last decade, Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium (ST) has shown an increase report with the simultaneous emergence of multidrug-resistant isolates, as phage type DT104. Therefore, to successfully control this microorganism, it is important to attribute salmonel...

BACKGROUND Workers in clinical microbiology laboratories are exposed to a variety of pathogenic microorganisms. Salmonella species is among the most commonly reported bacterial causes of laboratory-acquired infections. We report on three cases of laboratory-acquired Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (Salmonella Typhi) infection which occurred over the period 2012 to 2016 in South Africa. MET...
