چکیده
The emergence of a previously undefined phage type of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, designated DT191a, occurred in England and Wales in July 2008. The new strain exhibits a number of distinctive phenotypic and genotypic features. This report provides the tools necessary to track S. Typhimurium DT191a globally.

Molecular characterization, spread and evolution of multidrug resistance in Salmonella enterica typhimurium DT104.
Multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium phage type DT104 has emerged during the last decade as a global health problem because of its involvement in diseases in animals and humans. Multidrug-resistant DT104 strains are mostly resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulfonamides and tetracyclines (ACSSuT resistance type). The genes coding for such resistances ...

Duplex PCR was developed to screen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium phage type DT104 and related strains in Thailand because a phage typing laboratory of serovar Typhimurium is not available. Of 46 isolates of serovar Typhimurium and 32 isolates of S. enterica serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:-, 15 (33%) and 30 (94%) were duplex PCR positive, respectively. All isolates were submitted for phage typin...

Background: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is one of the most important serovars of Salmonella enterica and is associated with human salmonellosis worldwide. Many epidemiological studies have focused on the characteristics of Salmonella Typhimurium in many countries as well as in Asia. This study was conducted to investigate the genetic characteristics of Salmonella Typhimurium using m...

Salmonellosis is an internationally important disease of mammals and birds. Unique epidemics in New Zealand in the recent past include two Salmonella serovars: Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium definitive type (DT) 160 (S. Typhimurium DT160) and S. Brandenburg. Although not a major threat internationally, in New Zealand S. Typhimurium DT160 has been the most common serovar...
متن کاملCharacterization of a large novel phage-like plasmid in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a food-borne pathogen and a leading cause of gastroenteritis in humans. Recently, we sequenced a phage-type DT108 strain (L945) and found reads with high similarity to both Salmonella typhi strain CT18 plasmid pHCM2 and bacteriophage SSU5. In this study, we completely sequenced the novel phage-like plasmid which was designated as pSTM_Φ. The presence o...
