“…Salmonella can enter and survive in the farm environment for long periods of time. The presence of this pathogen is widespread in water buffalo herds globally (13,(29)(30)(31)(32) and its prevalence can be up to 26% in farm environment, as reported by a recent study (32). In farm animals information on the circulating pathogens and, in case of abortion, the correct identification of the etiological cause, could lessen the impact of the related pathologies.…”

First Report on Abortion Caused by Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Serovar Enteritidis in Water Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis)

Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Serovar Enteritidis is one of the major pathogens associated with enteric diseases in animals and humans. Thus, due to the importance of Salmonella spp. infections for animal production and public health, the aim of the present study was to describe the first detection of S. enteritidis in an aborted water buffalo fetus in southern Italy by characterizing the phylogroup profile and the antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolated pathogenic strains. The different clinical manifestations of salmonellosis in animals include diarrhea, abortion, pneumonia, septic arthritis, meningitis, and others, depending on the virulence of the serovars, infectious dose, and host immunity. This study reports the first case of abortion caused by Salmonella enterica subsp enterica serovar Enteritidis in water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) in the Campania region, southern Italy. Complete necropsy was performed on the aborted water buffalo fetus under study, and samples and swabs from different organs were collected. Samples were processed by microbiological and molecular analyses to detect bacterial, viral, and protozoarian pathogens possibly responsible for abortion. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) was carried out to further characterize the isolated S. Enteritidis strain. Our findings highlight the crucial role of S. Enteritidis as a potential abortive agent in water buffalo and its presence should therefore be investigated in cases of bubaline abortion.

“…Salmonella has the ability to attach with any part of gastrointestinal tract in the absence of other microflora, where it can colonize and multiply. It can also be disseminated to the environment, humans and other animals via feces (AL-Kubaisi et al 2020;Santana et al 2020). Therefore, fecal swabs or samples are used as true representative to confirm the presence of Salmonella in the intestinal wall of poultry chicks (El-Fakar and Rabie 2009).…”

“…Los cerdos suelen ser portadores asintomáticos, que excretan el patógeno de forma intermitente o cuando están estresados (Simons et al, 2015). Los brotes de salmonelosis asociados con el consumo de carne de cerdo han colocado a este animal y sus productos como la segunda fuente más importante de infección humana (Pires et al, 2011;Santana et al, 2020).…”

RESUMENSalmonella es un patógeno importante como agente causal de enfermedades gastroentéricas por consumo de alimentos contaminados. Para determinar la similitud genética de serovares de Salmonella, 340 muestras de heces y tejido del íleon fueron tomadas de cerdos de diferentes edades y etapas fisiológicas de dos granjas ubicadas en la zona centro del Estado de Sinaloa; las muestras del íleon fueron tomadas en rastro TIF. La similitud génica de los serovares se realizó mediante digestión con la enzima de restricción XbaI y electroforesis en gel de campo pulsado (PFGE). En 32 de las muestras analizadas se aisló
