Gut inflammation provides a respiratory electron acceptor for Salmonella

TL;DR: It is shown that reactive oxygen species generated during inflammation react with endogenous, luminal sulphur compounds (thiosulphate) to form a new respiratory electron acceptor, tetrathionate, that allows the pathogen to use respiration to compete with fermenting gut microbes.
