Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi with reduced susceptibility to ciprofloxacin is increasingly being reported globally. An outbreak caused by Salmonella Typhi with decreased ciprofloxacin susceptibility has not been reported before in Malaysia. We present here the annotated draft genome of a Salmonella Typhi strain involved in a typhoid outbreak.

background: to determine the prevalence of typhoidal and non-typhoidal salmonella species in hamadan city, west of iarn and detection of antibiotic susceptibility patterns of isolates. methods: in a cross-sectional descriptive study, 296 salmonella species including 192 strains of typhoidal salmonella and 104 strains of non- typhoidal salmonella were examined for serotyping and determining of a...

background: salmonella is one of the major causes of human diseases related to food consumption. salmonella typhi and s. para-typhi are causes of typhoidal and para-typhoidal infections. some infected individuals recovering from this infection become temporary or permanent carriers, harboring the organisms in the gallbladder, biliary tract, or rarely in their intestines. the aims of this study ...

BACKGROUND In low resource settings, Salmonella serovars frequently cause bloodstream infections. This study investigated the diagnostic performance of immunochromatographic rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), which detect Salmonella antigens, when applied to stored grown blood culture broth. MATERIAL/METHODS The SD Bioline One Step Salmonella Typhi Ag Rapid Detection Kit (Standard Diagnostics, Re...

Live Salmonella typhi administered intraperitoneally, acetone-killed S. typhi administered intraperitoneally, and live S. typhi given orally, with their effectiveness decreasing in that order, protected Swiss white mice against death from challenge with a virulent Salmonella typhimurium hybrid expressing S. typhi antigens.

This study was carried out to assess the antimicrobial activities of Sphenocentrum jollyanum and Mangifera indica extract on Salmonella typhi. The antimicrobial activities of these plant extract <50% ethanol was tested against Salmonella typhi mostly belongs to pathogenic bacteria, by agar well diffusion method. The crude extracts showed a broad extract spectrum of an antibacterial activity inh...

OBJECTIVES Decreased susceptibility to fluoroquinolones has become a major problem for the successful therapy of human infections caused by Salmonella enterica, especially the life-threatening typhoid and paratyphoid fevers. METHODS By using Luminex xTAG beads, we developed a rapid, reliable and cost-effective multiplexed genotyping assay for simultaneously detecting 11 mutations in gyrA, gyr...

Background and Objective: Salmonella typhi is one of the major challenges for the human and animal health. Salmonella with high pathogenicity can be harmful factor for human health. The control of this pathogen is a big challenge as it can cause serious infectious diseases such as gastroenteritis, septicemia and typhoid fever. On the other side, there are many factors such as toxin-antitoxin (T...
