The identification, typing and fingerprinting of Salmonella: laboratory aspects and epidemiological applications

Abstract: Since the 1930s, traditional methods of strain identification based on serotyping and phage typing have been the foundation of salmonella epidemiology. Although the incidence of diseases such as typhoid and paratyphoid has decreased in recent years, food-poisoning caused by non-typhoidal salmonella strains has now reached epidemic proportions in many countries, despite improvements in sanitation and hygiene. Precise strain identification is an essential prerequisite for epidemiological investigations aimed at … Show more

“…The latter two methods have pr-eviously been combined for-a typing analysis of S. enteritidis [23] and plasmid typing has been used extensively for a variety of applications [24]. IS8200 profiling has previously been combined with the analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms at several cloned chr-omosomal genes in a phylogenetic analysis of S. enteritidis [12].…”

“…Phage typing is used to subdivide strains within a particular serotype and phage typing schemes have been developed for the most common salmonella serotypes in the UK, namely S. enteritidis, S. typhimurium and S. virchow, and also for other serotypes of clinical and epidemiological importance such as S. typhi [7]. The 1-2 development in LEP of a phage typing scheme for S. enteritidis [8] has provided an invaluable means of differentiating strains of this organism, and has proved particularly useful for epidemiological studies.…”

“…Devido à conhecida instabilidade dos plasmídios, os quais podem ser perdidos ou adquiridos durante o processo evolucionário (Threlfall & Frost 1990), admite-se precariamente, a provável presença do perfil plasmidial P8 nas amostras pertencentes aos perfis P2, P4 e P6.…”

“…Devido a problemas relacionados à reprodutibilidade ou poder discriminatório associados a esses métodos de tipagem fenotípica, técnicas moleculares foram desenvolvidas propiciando uma boa discriminação entre cepas do mesmo sorotipo ou fagotipo (Threlfall & Frost 1990).…”
