Biotypes of strains of Salmonella typhimurium of phage types 49, 204 and 193

Abstract

Biotyping provided evidence of the phylogenetic relationships between strains of Salmonella typhimurium of phage types 49 and 204 and certain strains of phage type 193, which were interconvertible in phage types. All of 564 strains of phage types 49 and 204, 35 of which were chloramphenicol-resistant, were of biotype 26 whereas those of phage type 193 (91 strains) belonged to six different primary biotypes. Lines of descent are suggested for strains of phage type/biotype: 193/26a, 193/17g and 193/9f.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.

Antimicrobial Resistance (ASM)

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.
