Isolation and identification of Salmonella from curry samples and its sensitivity to commercial antibiotics and aqueous extracts of Camelia sinensis (L.) and Trachyspermum ammi (L.)

Prevalence and antibiogram study of Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus in poultry meat

“…It is the major cause of enteric diseases in developing countries and is a major cause of mortality and morbidity [10] . Poultry meats as a main source of foodborne infections have great impact in food safety.…”

“…Salmonella species in foods of animal origin are most frequently considered to be associated with the foodborne pathogen outbreaks. Improper cooking, inadequate storage, cross-contamination and use of raw ingredients in the preparation of food are the most common factors contributing to outbreaks [2,[8][9][10] .…”

“…It's hard to treat the infections caused by multidrug resistant bacteria as compare to normal one. Such strains are more dangerous and of great food safety concern [2,10,17] . The increase in the prevalence of multi-drug resistant Salmonella, particularly resistance to fluoroquinolones and third-generation cephalosporins are an emerging problem worldwide [9] .…”

Isolated thrombocytopenia a rare presenting feature of enteric fever

“…5 Although certain viral infections cytomegalovirus, H5N1, HIV and recently Hantavirus have been seen to be associated with thrombocytopenia and fever as co morbid conditions. [6][7][8][9][10][11] But our case of enteric fever presented with isolated thrombocytopenia which is a rare presentation. Enteric fever should be considered as a possibility in work up for a case of fever with isolated thrombocytopenia which is a rare presentation.…”

Tracing Transmission of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica in Tomato Fruits

“…One of bacterial pathogens, usually present at high concentration in waste water, is S. enterica (Walczak et al, 2009). But the dense and compact network of cellulosic fibres in plant cell walls usually do not allow microorganisms entry from waste water to the plant, but if the cell wall is ruptured then microorganisms can enter the plant and gain access to plant protoplast (Salem et al, 2010;Gunasegaran et al, 2011). The culture and PCR-based diagnostics showed that waste water used for irrigation was contaminated with S. enterica (Way et al, 1993).…”
