The purpose of this study was to examine whether certain salmonella serovars, other than Typhi and Paratyphi, may have an increased ability to enter the human body fluids. The data are based on over 20,000 salmonella isolated from humans during 1984-9, among them 436 from extra-intestinal (...
SalmonellaCarriersWaterSalmonella bacilli infection has remained an important health problem in the developing world. The transmission of S. typhi most often occurs through food and water, which have been contaminated by faeces from carriers and infected humans. Prevalence of carriers is a factor in ...

2022). We also observed that green tea catechin EGCG differentially influences the growth of microorganisms in vitro resulting in strong suppression of pathogenic microorganisms (Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella flexneri, and Vibrio cholerae) with little or no effect on...
Of the 80 samples processed, 11 (13.75%) yielded Gram negative isolates belonging to enterobacteriaceae family. These include; Citrobacter fruendii 2, Escherichia coli 1, Klebsiella pneumoniae 1, Morganella morganii 1, Proteus vulgaris 1, Salmonella typhi 2 and Serratia mercescens 3. Among the ...
H2S, motile and VP showed positive for Enterobacter spp, Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhi in well and river water while biochemical parameters like urea, motile and MR showed negative as shown in Table 4. There was a strong correlation between total heterotrophic bacteria counts and physico-...

Food-producing animals are the major reservoirs for many foodborne pathogens such as Campylobacter species, non-Typhi serotypes of Salmonella enterica, Shiga toxin-producing strains of Escherichia coli, and Listeria monocytogenes. The zoonotic potential of foodborne pathogens and their ability to produce ...
Theresult of the study revealed that most of the wells were grossly contaminatedwith bacteria pathogens such as Klebsiella species (95%), Escherichiacoli (52%) and Salmonella typhi (32.5%). Comparatively, theuncovered wells were more contaminated with bacteria pathogens than the coveredwell. All ...
Salmonella isolates were identified and characterized by standard procedures. Isolates were subjected to antimi- crobial susceptibility testing and were further screened for plasmid DNA by standard methods. Results: A total of 27 Salmonella isolates made up of 5 (18.5%) S. typhi, 6 (22.2%) S....
