The Kauffmann–White classification or Kauffmann and White classification scheme [1] [2] is a system that classifies the genus Salmonella into serotypes, based on surface antigens. It is named after Philip Bruce White and Fritz Kauffmann . First the "O" antigen type is determined based on oligosaccharides associated with lipopolysaccharide.
Detection of viral RNA and DNA genomes can be performed using polymerase chain reaction. This technique makes many copies of the virus genome using virus-specific probes. Variations of PCR such as nested reverse transcriptase PCR and real time PCR can also be used to determine viral loads in patient serum.
Salmonella virus P22 is a bacteriophage in the Podoviridae family that infects Salmonella typhimurium. [1] Like many phages, it has been used in molecular biology to induce mutations in cultured bacteria and to introduce foreign genetic material. [2] P22 has been used in generalized transduction and is an important tool for investigating ...
Salmonella species can be found in the digestive tracts of humans and animals, especially reptiles. Salmonella on the skin of reptiles or amphibians can be passed to people who handle the animals. [39] Food and water can also be contaminated with the bacteria if they come in contact with the feces of infected people or animals. [40]
Salmonellosis is a symptomatic infection caused by bacteria of the Salmonella type. [1] It is the most common disease to be known as food poisoning (though the name refers to food-borne illness in general), these are defined as diseases, usually either infectious or toxic in nature, caused by agents that enter the body through the ingestion of food.
Autonomous Pathogen Detection System by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Autonomous Detection Systems (ADS), also called biohazard detection systems or autonomous pathogen detection systems, are designed to monitor air or water in an environment and to detect the presence of airborne or waterborne chemicals, toxins, pathogens, or other biological agents capable of causing human illness ...
The IMViC tests are a group of individual tests used in microbiology lab testing to identify an organism in the coliform group.A coliform is a gram negative, aerobic, or facultative anaerobic rod, which produces gas from lactose within 48 hours.
A transmission electron microscope image of isolated T3SS needle complexes from Salmonella Typhimurium. The type III secretion system (T3SS or TTSS) is one of the bacterial secretion systems used by bacteria to secrete their effector proteins into the host's cells to promote virulence and colonisation.
