TL;DR: It is hoped that an appreciation of the differences that exist in the way these host-adapted serotypes of Salmonella interact with the host will lead to a greater understanding of the complex host–parasite relationship that characterizes salmonella infections.

TL;DR: The use of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) proved very effective in curing the plasmid with a relatively high frequency and the absence of isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICDH) activity in the cured strain strongly suggests that the structural gene encoding I CDH in this organism, in sharp contrast to all known ICDHs, is plasmids-encoded.

TL;DR: This model was used to examine the relationships between phage types within a previously denned clonal lineage, SECLIII, to establish whether or not Enteritidis like Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi and SalmoneLLA serotype Paratyphi B possessed type determining phages.

TL;DR: Differences in enterotoxin production between aminoglycoside-sensitive and -resistant MRSA isolates reflect subgroups previously defined by biotype, phage type, immunoblot and restriction enzyme fragmentation pattern data, and provide further evidence for the existence of two major MRSA clones in GRI.

TL;DR: A self-transferable virulence plasmid, pOG669, was utilized to investigate the effect of introduction of spv genes into strains of such phage types as S. typhimurium fromphage types that do not normally carry a virulence Plasmid responded differently to attempts to introduce it.
